Noisy sunken manhole
Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 985001.
Sunken manhole outside my house. Cars/trucks driving past all day over the manhole making a loud noise. I am a nurse and cannot get slept for nightshifts due to this. Manhole located outside 5 Osprey Heights.

We’ve completed our inspection and can confirm that the issue you reported relates to infrastructure owned or maintained by a utility company or other statutory undertaker.
Where possible, we will notify the responsible organisation of the defect. However, responsibility for inspecting, maintaining and repairing utility apparatus rests with the asset owner. If you require further information or updates, please contact the relevant utility provider directly.
Please note that utility covers, access points, cabinets, poles and associated equipment remain the responsibility of the utility provider, and the Roads Authority does not carry out repairs to these assets. We do, however, maintain the surrounding road and footway surfaces.
This report is now closed to updates from the public. You can make a new report in the same location.
