Couple of updates

A couple of updates on issues from earlier today :
  • The bin collection for part of Seafield Lane finally got done this morning - a day late - thanks to badly parked cars causing an obstruction. What residents find really annoying is the vehicles don't belong to local residents. I'm pleased that, through the residents' parking consultation exercise - now underway - and proactive action by Home Scotland at this particular location (Home Scotland own the residents' car park here), there are steps in hand to resolve this sort of problem. Anyway, many thanks to the Waste Management Department for its perseverance.
  • Further problems for the Friendly Bus sheltered housing service today because of the roadworks on Perth Road - but this time for Muirlands Sheltered Housing off Seafield Road. The bus did eventually manage to get access, but the good news is that the excavation at the top of Seafield Road is almost finished, so hopefully plain sailing next week!
