After waiting for nine months, the residents of Rothes Road have the carriageway of their road resurfaced and re-lined.

Paul Elderton said, ‘As a resident, it was interesting to see the road with no cars parked from one end to the other. Several of my neighbours took photographs to remember the day.

It was interesting to learn that the cars which were towed away belonged to non-residents who parked their cars for long periods in our road.

Parking in the road has become more difficult with the increase in charges at our carparks driving motorists who are visitors, workers, shoppers and others to find free parking places.

We await a really heavy rainstorm to show us if the drainage w0rks efficiently and effectively as the asphalt was laid over the existing surface’.
