Snow in Denbighshire – Update at 10am on Sunday
The heavy snow predicted for Denbighshire has arrived in earnest and gritting teams have been out throughout the night and are out in force across the county.
They are focussing mainly on the trunk routes and principal county roads. The weather position is at its worst in south Denbighshire and teams are doing all they can to keep the main routes open.
The Horseshoe Pass near Llangollen remains closed, but all other routes are passable with extreme care. However, we are re-iterating the advice by police for people to only travel if absolutely necessary.
