In addition there are a number of strategically placed grit bins for self help. There locations can also be found on the link above. To use the grit bins effectively, spread the rock salt thinly in dry weather, before the temperature drops below zero, or snow falls. Approximately one tablespoon of salt is enough for a square metre of ground.
