13Frequently asked questions

What does the assignment for ice and snow control entail?
The assignment includes preventive gritting based on meteorological forecasts, curative gritting in case of occurring ice and snow, and gritting during extreme snowfall or ice (CODE RED) to keep the roads passable.
Which response times apply upon a call?
Upon a call, the contractor must be present at Kanaalstraat 401 in Nijmegen within a maximum of 45 minutes with traction including operation, or within a maximum of 30 minutes in the case of hiring a driver.
How is delay due to weather conditions or works handled?
Delay due to road closures, diversion routes, or ice and snow control by other authorities is not a reason for failing to meet the response times or for additional payment. Also, delay due to necessarily driving slower due to weather conditions does not lead to compensation.
What are the minimum technical requirements for a cycle path gritter?
For the cycle path gritter (type NIDO Stratos 08-15 AWCLN), minimum requirements apply such as an engine power of 60 kW, an unladen weight of 1,800 kg, a hydraulic pump with a flow of 60 liters/minute, and a 3-point lifting device with a minimum lifting capacity of 400 KG.
