When pavements in Zittau must be cleared and gritted
In Zittau, pavements should be safe to walk on from 7am to 8pm Monday to Saturday and from 9am to 8pm on Sundays and public holidays. If fresh snow falls or the pavement becomes icy again during that time, it must be cleared and gritted again. We don't grit with salt around street trees or on green areas.
