The Moray Council Roads Maintenance Section intends to carry out surface dressing operations on the following roads. This
programme of works is very weather dependant and consequently the programme is subject to change.
The 2010/11 programme is available here
, it will be updated daily.
- One or two days in advance actual works we will place advisory road signs at the end of affected roads.
- On the day of the works, it will be necessary for residents to remove any parked vehicles from the public road during working
hours (07:00 to 18:00).
- The work consists of spraying liquid bitumen onto the road surface followed by an application of stone chippings.
- Unfortunately our works will cause some disruption to local traffic, but we will try to keep this to an absolute minimum.
These sections of road may have to be closed during the works, but our workforce will guide vehicles where required and we
would ask drivers to be patient and follow directions.
- Once the dressing is laid it takes a day or so to reach its full strength. We would therefore be obliged if drivers could
avoid sharp braking, accelerating or excessive turning manoeuvres to help protect our new surface. Pedestrians should avoid
any unnecessary walking on the newly laid dressing and they should check their footwear before entering homes/vehicles. Any
surplus chippings will be removed by our road sweeper as soon as possible, once the surface dressing has had time to “bed
in”.
