High winds and storms

High Winds and Storms
Going outside or driving during high winds and storms can be dangerous so here are a couple of things for you to follow should they occur.

Only travel if it is essential.

Take precautions by ensuring that any outdoor items such as bins, ladders and garden furniture are secured to prevent them being blown into the roads or through windows

Allow extra time for travelling, slow down, be aware of side winds and be particularly conscious of the dangers posed by debris that may have blown into the road

Be extra vigilant when driving on exposed routes such as bridges, or high open roads.
