Free Access to Rock Salt

All BID businesses have free access to rock salt across the estate, an essential resource during periods of snow and frost.

Rock salt plays a crucial role during severe winter conditions, helping businesses keep their sites, access roads and pathways safe. By keeping supplies stocked and properly maintained, businesses can reduce the risk of accidents and maintain operations even in harsh weather.

The rock salt is purchased from Peacock Salt, based on the Astmoor estate, and Keyline Builders located on the Halebank estate. By sourcing locally we help support and strengthen businesses within our community.

Salt supplies are kept at the following locations;

Halebank – Hough Green Garage, Pickerings Road.

Astmoor – Midas Engineering, Faraday Road.

In December 2022, we experienced a severe cold snap, and Halton BID was proud to support businesses in keeping the estates safe and accessible. Salt bags were made readily available to all businesses across the estates, and our dedicated BID Caretaker personally delivered numerous bags throughout the week to those in need.

We’re always here to help so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need support during challenging weather conditions.
