New pavement but no dropped kerb - sorted as of 31/5 however!

UPDATE - 31/5/11 - Result - sorted according to some of our regular readers. The following article was originally uploaded exactly one week ago (24/5) and now we are glad to report the problem has been corrected:

Thanks to one of the regular Gurnites for pointing this out. The new pavement has been built beside the bridge side of the road outside Grants Garage but anyone wanting to continue up the brae with say a pram or a motobility scooter is presented with a considerable obstacle. There is a perfectly good dropped kerb at the red area further along for those wishing to cross the road but even to reach that do you have to travel along the A96 for a few yards if you can't get up onto the pavement?

Could someone please install a dropped kerb here please?

    Pleased to report that, earlier this evening, works seemed to be nearing completion on the creation of a new dropped kerb , with anti-slip bobbly textured paving things.

    Good to see they have now put a drop kerb on the pavement, the power of "The Gurn"
