Council staff have agreed to my request to resurface the footpath through the Woodies off Broomhill Road.

Broomhill Road has now reopened between Hammerfield Avenue and Duthie Terrace. I understand buses are now running along the normal bus route.

Council staff are pushing Scottish Water to complete the work it is carrying out on Broomhill Road between Duthie Terrace and Hammerfield Avenue sooner than the currently planned completion date of Monday 16th September. This would allow Broomhill Road to be reopened earlier than the currently scheduled Tuesday 17th September.

I have asked Council staff to remove items, including two mattresses, dumped beside the bulk bins at the Garthdee Drive flats.

The July and August Police report for Garthdee is now available. Issues covered include theft, shoplifting, and antisocial behaviour.

The August Police report for Braeside and Mannofield is now available. Issues covered include attempted housebreaking, theft from a car, antisocial behaviour, and shoplifting.

Broomhill Road will be closed between 8am on Tuesday 10th September and 3.30pm on Friday 13th September between its junctions with Duthie Terrace and Hammerfield Avenue to allow urgent repairs to be carried out by Scottish Water. Traffic will be diverted via Garthdee Road.

After I highlighted the problem, Council staff have cut back branches blocking the footpath on the uphill side of Craigielea Avenue.

Council staff have agreed to carry out a review of the pavement parking ban on Broomhill Avenue after I highlighted residents’ concerns to them.

Scottish Water has finally accepted responsibility for the sunken area of road surface at 281 Broomhill Road and agreed to repair the leak which caused this problem. This followed a site meeting today (Thursday 5th September) with Council staff.
