Planned
A few potholes on this lane.
Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 985103.
I am writing in regards to Albert Street Lane Fraserburgh AB43 9JG and the many dangerous potholes at both ends of the road. I have previously submitted these through the appropriate channels but have received feedback that these are acceptable and not getting fixed at present.
One is situated at the junction onto Watermill Road but in the middle of the lane, meaning you have to block the lane when stopping for traffic to avoid hitting your tyre.
The others are towards the other end towards Gallowhill Road. They are situated to one side of the lane and one is particularly deep and will do damage to a car. As you can see by the photos that cars park right up this lane through the week making them completely unavoidable. There is only 2 in this photo today but most days there is atleast 4 right up to the junction.
