Gritting services for Lisburn businesses
Lisburn's retail parks around Sprucefield, its business parks and the industrial estates along the M1 make it one of the busiest areas we cover. Sites on higher ground to the north and west of the city can freeze on nights when central Belfast stays clear.
Lisburn is far enough inland that clear, still nights regularly bring frost. Precautionary gritting before dawn is the only reliable way to keep car parks and footpaths safe for early arrivals.
