Aberdeen - third don crossing...

[MGZRod]

What's your thoughts? I think it's going to be a waste of time. All it's going to do it's bring a concentration of traffic into roads that are nowhere near capable of supporting it.

All in my opinion though, so no bickering.

I think it would benefit more from another dee crossing tbh.

Oh, and a bypass. Wonder if anyone's considered that?

[Kiltie]

It would've been dead handy today.

[Lefty]

Aye, granted.

This is why BoDon needs another crossing. The volume of traffic going north is huge and with more house builders building north of the city it's going to get worse.
Only 2 ways out of BoDon, it's been a joke for years!

This. I don't go to BoD for work anymore, but I have to go past Aberdeen Uni on the way home, and traffic queues back from the King St. roundabout up th hill at peak times. The persley bridge closure the other day meant traffic was all along Great Northern road to filter down to King st. and eventually across the bridge...

So aslong as it is planned properly, yes.

My God you're a genius!! I had similar thoughts in '81 when I first moved up here, OH, Gosh, so did Aberdeen council, but wait a minute, they did sod all about it except fight some snotty nosed jerk of a business man who didn't want it in his back yard.

Aberdeen/Aberdeenshire Council are useless.

I've just quit me job mainly because of the commute from Souith of Aberdeen to Stoneywood. Dyce. couldn't face it anymore.

I second this post.

I left my job at dyce just down to the pure crap that goes on. They build and build but does the transport network get better. Does it fk
