Go Careful on the B5056

Over the last 3 weeks we’ve had reports of 3 accidents and a number of other drivers mentioning minor slides on black ice on the B5056 near the Tissington ford. The stretch of road in question is the 300-400m between the ford turning and the sharp left bend in the direction of Ashbourne.

B5056-1

This stretch seems to sit in a frost pocket and with the flow of water from the saturated fields above washing any grit away black ice is forming along the road. Please drive with extra care over this stretch particularly on early frosty mornings.

B5056-2

Though the weather is quite mild just now the forecast does show several cold nights with the risk of frost over the next couple of weeks.

 

Safe driving!

Watch out for black ice on the roads, especially on higher ground to the north. The Buxton Advertiser reports the Police have closed the A537 over the Cat and Fiddle this afternoon due to black ice, as well as the A54.

With rain and sleet forecast, temperatures around zero tonight and getting colder tomorrow, do let our readers know if you spot or hear of any problems on the roads, by adding comments to this post or emailing parwich@hotmail.co.uk.

So far, 4pm Wednesday, Derbyshire County Council have not reported any road closures (click here to see their gritting routes and snow related road closures web page).

Brook Level Rising

The brook at Nethergreen is just about at the top of the bank and the water is roaring down.  If you are near the brook at any point through the village it is worth checking that no debris is being brought down with the force of the water. Apparently the banks have burst in Pits Lane.

Just thought I would send you this picture of the lovely Parwich School in the snow.

It may remind everyone to get ready for the winter.
