Derbyshire A-road the Cat and Fiddle A537 reopens this afternoon after spending several days closed due to snow and icy conditions
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
A Derbyshire County Council spokesperson said: “We've just re-opened the Cat and Fiddle A537. It is passable with care so please do drive to the conditions.
“As we are expecting another very cold night our gritting crews will be out from 1.00pm treating all primary and secondary routes. They will then grit all primary and secondary routes from 2.00am tomorrow morning (Friday, January 10).

Mam Nick, Edale to Rushup Edge
A6024 Holme Moss
Goyts Lane, off A5004 near Buxton
