📢 New Craigellachie road bridge 📢

We were excited for the works to be finished too! Unfortunately, damaged concrete was discovered below the joint that was being fixed. A temporary fix has been put in place until our contractor can come back and do the additional repairs.

We appreciate this is disappointing - the road is open just now and the traffic lights have been removed but there will be more roadworks to come at a later date (we'll share when we know when it'll be).

Apologies, it's not ideal but the work will be completed as soon as possible.
