Grate over gully had fallen into gully leaving large exposed hole by road side.

Reported via mobile in the Gully category anonymously at 20:07, Wed 30 July 2025

Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 918922.

This is a new problem to my knowledge. It was lifted out of gully and put back in place as showing in photo but it is not secure and it could easily happen again. A large and deep hole of this nature would not be safe if exposed.
