Double yellow lines removed from Peterhead road after danger claims

Double yellow lines removed from Peterhead road after danger claims

Aberdeenshire Council will reintroduce parking restrictions on a Peterhead road amid safety concerns.

Double yellow lines were removed from Maiden Street less than six months ago as part of a drive to encourage shoppers to spend money in the town centre.

But within days, locals had complained the new arrangements made crossing the road and driving through the town a danger.

Following a survey on the road, Aberdeenshire Council will now repaint 121ft of lines on the road.

In a report to be discussed by councillors next week, the authority’s director of infrastructure services Stephen Archer said members of the public will have 21 days to voice objections to the parking restrictions coming back into effect.

“It would appear that there is a growing consensus amongst the elected members to re-introduce double yellow lines along one side of Maiden Street,” he added.

“Therefore it is proposed that the existing double yellow lines are fully reinstated on the north side of the street between Erroll Street and Love Lane, and extended over the current dropped crossing area on the south side.”

Police Scotland has raised no objections to the proposal.

Peterhead’s community council has also been consulted and have not raised any concerns.

Councillor Anne Allan welcomed a review into the road after becoming aware of local residents branding the street “dangerous”.

“There is a problem right at the end next to the kirk, on the bend, where I think it is just a bit too close for cars waiting to exit,” she said.

“It’s stopping cars turning in.”
