Black arrow on sign non existent.

Reported via mobile in the Signs & Bollards category by Andrew Rettie at 17:02, Monday 13 April 2026

Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 961450.

As you travel from Ellon towards Haddo, the sign giving priority to on coming vehicles is badly aged so much so that the large black arrow is totally faded. On numerous occasions in the last 6 months I have had to stop suddenly as vehicles are not adhering to the signage. I notice that this was reported in the summer of 2025, but it still has not been addressed can this be dealt with as a priority please?
