The contents of salt bins are provided for use on community assets (public roads and paths) and should not be used on private pathways or drives. Salt bins are periodically refilled by Bracknell Forest Council in response to usage as resources permit. Salt bins are placed on the network in the weeks leading up to the 21 week standby period and are removed into storage at the end of the winter season. You can find your local salt bin at the following locations three of which are sponsored by Crowthorne Parish Council.       Byron Drive Grant Road Pine Hill Road South Meadow South Meadow Furze Hill Crescent Footway adj. to Give Way sign 59 yrds ahead J/w Pinehill Road on verge Outside No.74 South verge opp first garage block At junction on verge o/s 77 next to LC J/w Cambridge Road
