Merry Gritmas and Gritley Come Dancing
Children from infant and primary schools across the county have helped to name some of Surrey's brand-new fleet of gritters which will help keep our roads safe over the winter.
The new vehicles operate more efficiently, have state-of-the-art technology on board and produce less carbon emissions.
Over 200 schools were invited to take part in a competition to name a gritter and the winning names are now displayed on the fleet and are travelling around the county delivering the winter service.
The winning entries are:
- Merry Gritmas!
- Gritty Mouse
- Gritley Come Dancing
- Grit Me Out of Here!
- Sir Salt-a-Lot
- Thaw, God of Grit
- Alfred the Grit
- Good Morning Gritain
- Unforgrittable
- Father Gritmas
- Let it Grit
- Hansel and Grittel
- Gritzen
- Hagrit
- Thomas the Grit Engine
