I can’t believe the number of potholes there are in Broughty Ferry at the moment! There are also a lot of sections of carriageway in dire need of repair.
I spent most of last weekend checking on locations I have previously reported to ensure that action had been taken and noting new locations that are in need of some attention.
The Roads Maintenance Partnership has recently advised me of the following works:
· Claypotts Road between Queen Street and Strathern Road is to be resurfaced
· Lower Broughty Ferry Road is to receive a proprietary thin surfacing as is Dunnottar Place
· Dundee Road West between Ralston Road and Strips of Craigie is to get a surface dressing
· Repairs will be carried out to the Bayfield Road carriageway using the Rhinopatch equipment for a more durable repair rather than repeatedly filling the many potholes
I was particularly pleased to learn about Claypotts Road. The section to be attended to is in a shocking sate of repair for a principal road through Broughty Ferry. The picture I have posted doesn’t really show the full extent of the problem. The only down side is that it will result in further temporary traffic management arrangements (which we never seem to see the end of what with one thing or another).
