Road drain blocked

Reported via mobile in the Gully category anonymously at 17:06, Friday 24 October 2025

Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 930107.

The road drain is blocked. Water from the hill @letterbeg farm is not going into the road drain and is flowing onto the B976. When it gets cold it will turn to ice. Potential for traffic to slip off the road, down the hill into Feugh river.

  • Thank you for your report. We’ve arranged for an inspection to take place so we can confirm who is responsible for the issue you’ve raised.

    This may involve checking whether the defect relates to the public road network or to infrastructure maintained by another council service, a utility company or other private party.

    We’ll update you once the inspection is complete and we know how the matter will be progressed.

  • We’re currently developing our approach to displaying priorities and target completion times to keep residents better informed. In the meantime, we’ll continue to assess the level of risk and allocate resources based on urgency, location, and the availability of repair teams.

    This defect has been added to our works programme and will be scheduled accordingly.

    • To be Completed by: 27/01/2026
    • Road category: 3B
    • Road speed limit: 60

    The date shown above represents the latest target for completion based on our current programme of works. This may be brought forward where resources, operational priorities, or coordination with other activities allow. Defects assessed as posing a higher risk are prioritised for earlier repair whenever possible.

    Thank you for your patience while we carry out this work.
