Gritting services for Cookstown businesses
Cookstown sits on the A29 at the foot of the Sperrins, with manufacturing, quarrying, engineering and agri-food businesses across the surrounding countryside. Rural sites here often freeze hard and early in the evening.
Parts of the Cookstown area sit on higher, exposed ground, where frost forms earlier in the evening and snow settles more readily than in the lowlands. Sites here are given their own trigger and treated first on cold nights.
