ANOTHER yellow weather warning for ice affecting parts of the Borders came into effect at 3pm today Tuesday December 5 and will run to 11am on Wednesday December 6.

The MET Office say that icy patches may lead to some travel disruption.

 

 

Keep yourself and your family safe when it is icy.

Plan to leave the house at least five minutes earlier than normal.

Not needing to rush reduces your risk of accidents, slips, and falls.

If you need to make a journey on foot or by bike, try to use pavements along main roads which are likely to be less slippery.

Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary.

Be prepared for weather warnings to change: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.

Gritters will be on patrol throughout the region.
