Derbyshire County Council has resumed responsibility for gritting roads and pavements across High Peak.
For several years, the Borough Council had gritted some roads and pavements for the county council, as well as clearing certain road gullies.
However, a service review by both councils has resulted in a recent decision for the county council to take the entire gritting service back in house. The borough will continue to clean gullies for the county.
The decision was taken before the recent severe weather started.
Requests for gritting should be made by telephoning the Call Derbyshire contact centre on (01629) 533190 and following the menu of instructions.
