Damaged salt grit bin on Ruckles Way

Reported via mobile in the Salt bin damaged category anonymously at 14:43, Tuesday 4 November 2025

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8375705.

This is an essential grit salt bin to keep Ruckles Way safe and clear for access in winter. The container has been badly damaged in several places so that the grit salt leaks out and cannot be stored properly. Please could it be replaced with a new container before freezing conditions arrive?

Updates

  • This has been passed to our Winter Maintenance Team.

    If a salt bin is damaged beyond repair, we will order a new one. But this can take up to 28 days during the winter months when demand is high, or longer if stocks are low.
