The stretch from Rathnew to Arklow was passable at around 1.00pm but take it easy. Not a huge amount of gritting going on. Arklow main street was okay, Gorey road icy and Coolgreany Road pretty bad.

Well there is a thread on the M50 on the first or second page (new posts) and there appears to be some sections in bad shape. Check that thread out. But I've been told by a mate working in Bray that the N11 from Bray to Newtown was okay this morning.

Okay I just got off the phone with a friend living in Kilcarra. They travel the Vale road from Arklow (which continues to Rathdrum). And the road appears to be okay. They also have seen a few gritters out on that road so you may be good to go.
