Additional case study: Supply of salt

At the start of 2010 the UK was hit by extremely cold weather including snow and ice. As a
result there was a major increase in demand for salt to put on the roads to make them
safer. However, the supply of salt in the UK comes mainly from three salt mines; one in
Cheshire, one in Cleveland, and one in County Antrim. The shortage was so great that at
one point the government ordered councils to use less grit on the roads and stopped
gritting the hard shoulder of the motorways. Problems in the past meant councils had
been instructed to hold a few days worth of stock of salt but this was not enough to make
the roads safe in what was the coldest period since 1963.
