Problems are continuing to be caused for people living on and near Deeside Drive by badly and thoughtlessly parked cars. Some cars have even been parked on the recently installed double yellow lines.

I have urged the council to repair an area of potholes and broken road surface on Kenfield Crescent.

Garthdee Farm Gardens residents are becoming increasingly frustrated by the delay in the council being able to “adopt” – take control of – that road. The delay is due to the developer Barrett not carrying out the work needed to bring the road up to the required standard.

It was great to see the badly broken and uneven surface of Salisbury Terrace resurfaced very recently. Unfortunately it seems some problems have arisen with the new surface.

Council staff have agreed to a request I made on behalf of residents for blocked street drain gullies on Broomhill Road to be cleared.

I am delighted that work to resurface Salisbury Terrace is due to begin on Monday 21st October.

I have contacted council staff to ask that action is taken to end the problem of a pool of water forming at the eastern side of junction of Thorngrove Avenue and Great Western Road after it rains.

After being contacted by a concerned resident, I have called on the council to carry out repairs to the steps leading between Ruthrie Terrace to Ruthrieston Road. I have also asked for weeds to be removed and the shrubs and hedging overhanging the steps to be cut back. Sign up here to receive e-mail newsletters […]

Council staff have now agreed to finish repairing the unsafe and uneven steps outside 37-45 Ramsay Crescent.

Council roads staff have refused a request I made on behalf of residents for a mandatory 20mph speed limit to be introduced in the Deeside Gardens area.
