The gritters will be out tonight in Middlesbrough to prepare for the arrival of colder weather towards the end of the week.
The Met Office has predicted widespread frost tonight as well as misty and freezing fog patches developing in places with a minimum temperature of minus three degrees.
Tomorrow is expected to be cold and frosty but with bright sunshine and light wind. A band of rain crossing on Friday will bring colder air and isolated showers which may be wintry on the hills. Saturday is also expected to be frosty.
Middlesbrough Council's transport, environment and streetscene teams are receiving regular weather updates with operations set to get going at the first sign or ice or snow.
The gritters will be taking to the roads tonight to ensure main roads and pavements remain safe and passable.
