Winter Maintenance Plan
The objective of the Kildare County Council Winter Maintenance Plan is to keep all principal roads in the County open to traffic, free from ice and safe to travel on. Kildare County Council treat our National, Secondary, Regional and Local Roads. National Primary and Motorway routes are dealt with by contractors on behalf of Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII).
Kildare County Council currently operate 10 routes within its Winter Maintenance Programme, treating approximately 705 km of Local, Regional & National Secondary Road network in the county.
Please note that at times of severe weather conditions, Kildare County Council staff, during the working day, may give priority to other roads and junctions outside of our standard routes that need treatment. This may include snow clearing and salting on additional roads at critical locations.
Our Winter Maintenance Programme began on Thursday 10th October 2024 and will run until 30th April 2025
