This afternoon local councillors were given a draft plan for roads maintenance in the coming financial year. I was pleased to see the Muirend Road roundabout and Bruntland Road in Portlethen were included as promised.

I pressed the case with officers that it is important that Bruntland Road is particular is resurfaced. I was told that patching will taking place after Easter with a new surface in mid June. Roads officers Philip Leiper, Wendy McLaren and Ewen Smith are well aware of local concerns!
