The snow plough attended Dargavel yesterday but was unable to venture into many of the side roads due to its size and cars blocking its path at certain points.
BAE have confirmed that a JCB snow plough will be attending this morning to clear the side roads within the estate. It is currently on site at Dargavel north and will be working its way through the village.
Given that it is still quite a large vehicle please be aware that it will only be able to clear streets where it can safely gain access. If there are any cars blocking roads or double parked in such a way that the roads are narrowed please either move them if they belong to you and it is safe to do so or locate the owner to move them if you can please.
Our thanks go to BAE for arranging this at their own cost given that the snow is likely to take some time to disappear otherwise.

The Residents Committee have been in contact with BAE this morning and they have confirmed that a gritter/snowplough is on its way to clear the main roads and put down more grit.
We’ve asked if they can clear as many of the side streets within Dargavel as they can and we’re grateful to BAE for agreeing to do this and at no charge to the residents in light of the exceptional weather conditions.
Thankfully the worst of the snow should soon be over if the forecast is to be believed but the temperature is expected to remain close to freezing over the next few days so it may take a little while for the snow to thaw. BAE’s efforts in clearing the roads should hopefully allow things to get back to normal sooner than would otherwise be the case.
We’d also like to pass on our thanks on behalf of the community to the individuals who have gone above and beyond over the last few days to support their fellow residents, fantastic to see such a great community spirit developing in the village!
BAE Systems have confirmed that they gritted Slateford Road, Craigton Drive and Barrangary Road overnight. They recognise that there is a need for further gritting this morning and are currently en route to do this. The gritter is currently stuck on the M77 but they will be back on site as soon as possible to do another grit of the main roads.
