With temperatures set to fall below zero tonight, and widespread ice and frost forecast, Donegal County Council has confirmed all routes on its winter maintenance programme will be gritted tonight.
However, a gritting lorry has broken down on Route 5 in East Inishowen, which means part of that route may go ungritted tonight.
It covers the area between Quigley’s Point, Carndonagh and Moville.
Motorists are being urged to exercise extreme caution, and to remember that no road is ever guaranteed to be ice free.
