The North-east is grinding to a halt under an SNP Government

Both Cllr Ian Mollison and Cllr Paul Melling along with Mike Rumbles MSP are annoyed that SNP Ministers have left the Aberdeen Crossrail scheme gathering dust and delayed making a decision about the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route.

Cllr Melling said "The schemes are vital for the Northeast, and vital for the Newtonhill and Portlethen area. Meanwhile we are forced to use the A90 which grinds to a halt whenever there's a minor bump.

A campaign for a safe route for cyclists and walkers between Newtonhill and Portlethen is making progress.

    If you are a resident of the West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
