Don't drive above them and you don't get caught out, simple! Sounds more like a personal axe to grind with some of your pointed comments mhutch. This is a well known stretch for the police to check once in a while. So not necessarily requiring a complaint from a member of the public at all. Since Total and Roadbridge have been working up there, traffic quantity and speed have increased. na , the grassing was the grudge my good fellow , and no i wasnt caught , and no , i seldom speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boz Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 What's the snow doing around Voe/Brae? Blizzard conditions in town - not looking forward to the journey home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siffy Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Been snowing heavily in Weisdale now for about an hour. Wormadale Hill is getting pretty bad. If travelling west i'd go now, we were going to nip into to lerwick but changed our minds when we saw wormadale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyumpi Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 It's laid down another inch or two in Whiteness over the last couple of hours. Vehicles still zipping by but starting to thin out a bit and the black tracks are disappearing on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LandRover S2a Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Been into town this morning and there was a car off just before Girlsta so stationary traffic whilst it was cleared - everyone appeared ok though.It snowed in town all the time whilst I was there and coming back at 2pm, the roads were horrid all the way to Voe. Voe through to Brae wasn't too bad but the snow seemed to be heading north as Brae to North Isles was started to get bad as I came through just before 3pm.

tingwalllass Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Home from weisdale a short while ago, roads in weisdale and whiteness we not good and cars are getting stuck going up wormadale brae. The gritters came and cleared slush and cars managed to get through with a bit of a run up. (Thanks to the gritters )Main roads were far better as side roads. If your heading wast, I'd head soon before more snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabiaTerra Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Just a heads-up. Right now (04:43), Lerwick is frozen. I mean really, seriously deep frozen. I just had to go out for a short walk (don't ask!), and I have never seen as much ice. Roads, pavements, everything that might have had a sheen of damp on it is frozen solid. There is very light snow being blown around by a stiff Northerly breeze, this snow is covering the ice. If you are driving this morning in the Lerwick area, be very careful.
