Skene cycle barrier safety issue highlighted

Many thanks to the local resident who notified me of an incident on the path from Kirkton of Skene towards Westhill recently. The gentleman had been cycling in the dark and collided with the cycle barriers. After the incident he thoughtfully attached fluorescent tape on the barriers for other path users. I have notified the Roads Department at Aberdeenshire Council today who are to investigate and hopefully get some permanent reflectors on the barriers very soon.

Reminder: Echt road closure starts Monday 16th January

The B9119 Aberdeen to Tarland road will be closed from Echt Primary School to Myriewell Cottages for six weeks to allow work to be carried out at a housing development.

Diversions will be in place during the work, directing motorists along the crossroads at the B9125 Garlogie to Raemoir Road and the B977 Kintore to Echt roads (click on the link below to see map).
