Roadworks
can be a pain, but if it’s for carriageway reconstruction the end result is
worth waiting for as it is usually a blemish free road surface (for a while anyway!).
I was pleased to see that work has started this week on Panmure Street between Monifieth
Road and Camphill Road. In recent months you would have been better driving a
moon buggy to traverse the crater filled surface. I
had been raising this as a ‘must do’ repair with the council’s road maintenance
partnership for a while and it will certainly make a difference when it’s finished.
At the recent council election the state of our roads and pavements was a big
issue and I intend to push the new council for additional resources so that
many more carriageways will benefit from a pothole free surface.
