Clearway Gritting has played a part in keeping local NHS hospitals running effectively during severe winter weather this year. We manage several public sector NHS hospitals contracts in Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Suffolk.
How our gritting services support your local NHS hospital
Our Clearway Gritting teams remove snow and ice from the NHS hospital car parks, grit private roads adjoining the main road, grit pavements and keep all other access roads and paths clear, so NHS hospital staff and hospital visitors can park easily and access the hospital at all times.

Our modern gritting machinery is ideal for NHS Hospital snow clearance
At Clearway Gritting we have a growing gritting fleet of 80+ snowploughs and 36+ spreaders so you know that your hospital will be well served when bad weather arrives. We purchase winter gritting equipment from Econ Engineering Limited as they are the largest UK manufacturer of winter gritting and salt spreading vehicles.
Our experienced Clearway gritting teams are used to working at large premises as we already service many local NHS hospitals. We use a variety of different sized spreaders so we can clear ice and snow and grit small and large NHS hospitals. We use our main 3.5 tonne Vale Engineering trailed spreaders, and we use six 7.5-tonne and two 14-tonne spreaders. For very large hospital sites we grit by using our two 18-tonne lorries.
