FOI Request - Winter Maintenance Salt Usage

Request 101003679012

We are currently undergoing a winter road safety study research project in various European countries. The purpose is to get a better understanding of road salt used during the winter. We have these following enquiries, regarding the roads that Moray council are primarily responsible for:

1. Does there exist any numbers of how many tonnes of salt was stocked before last winter (2023)?
2. Does there exist any numbers of how many tonnes of salt that was actually used on the roads, during last winter 2023/2024?
3. How many kilometres of road did you cover during the winter?

As the research scope is only for gritting and salting, we do not inquire for any Sand usage or Snow clearing.
