While the worst of Storm Amy has passed, the fall out of the storm resulted in multiple trees down across the county, blocking or partially blocking our roads. Our crews are currently dealing with blockages on a priority basis. While the majority of our main roads are passable, the public are advised to be mindful of fallen debris and surface water posing difficulty driving conditions.
