Terrible planning in that no one has seen fit to tap the developers for a new road crossing over the railway to exit from the estate onto the A96 near Balmakeith. Or did I see that they did make a donation to the transport development funds?
A long, long time ago when that land was zoned for development a mannie came to town for a meeting. He may have been from the old Highland Regional Council or maybe some other organisation but he talked about how there might be a footbridge here so the folk in the new houses could get to work in the new industrial estate without too much hassle. Looks like another vision that went down the pan at some point or other. Perhaps a footbridge might still be a good idea so folk could go shopping at Sainsbury's by bicycle without having to negotiate the Lochloy junction?
