Grit lorries out in Warwickshire as roads melt

CWR Breakfast with Phil Upton

Available for over a year

Warwickshire gritters are going to be back out this weekend - and instead of ice - it's melting tarmac they are trying to stop. The crews are going to be putting down a type of dust on the roads - to stop cars damaging the road surface in hot temperatures. BBC CWR's Richard Williams has been out to speak to Jeff Morris from Highways Warwickshire to find out how they're protecting the roads.
