Arrow on sign Non Existent
Sent to Aberdeenshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 969587.
This issue was reported by myself in April and also by someone else last summer, surely it cant take a year to change one sign! This sign is on the approach to the Bridge of Ardlethen and is what I would class as a Road Safety issue as there have been numerous incidents of people 'racing' to cross the bridge from the Ellon side, this has resulted in accidents on the bridge itself. I will also be raising this issue with my local Councillor as I believe someone may be seriously hurt in an accident at this location.
