MOTORISTS are today being warned to expect icy conditions on the roads across the county.

Suffolk County Council will be gritting all main routes early tomorrow morning, starting at 4.30am.

Ipswich Borough Council will be gritting cold routes tonight, starting at 8pm.

The County Council has advised drivers to listen to weather forecasts on the radio or television before setting out, allow extra time for journeys in wintry conditions, and reduce speed generally.

Main routes should be used as far as possible for journeys as these are most likely to have been salted.

If conditions are severe, motorists are advised to consider delaying their journeys.
