  • Update on roadworks

    The roadworks at The Croft

    Should be completed by Friday 22nd May, according to the Ayrshire Roads Alliance.

    Progress at The Croft, Friday 15th May

    I called them today (Friday 15th), and was assured that the work should be completed by next Friday.

    However…

    This is the first time ARA have used Stepford contractors, and they’ve had to chase them up several times.

    Reading between the lines, I think that means don’t hold your breath…

    I just hope for the sake of the suspension on all of our vehicles that they do complete on time.

    We can’t wait for the south road to be resurfaced – at least we can thank the Community Council and South Ayrshire for the work on that being set in motion!

    Resurfacing – at last!

    Ayrshire Roads Alliance have notified the Community Council that they will resurface the south road into Dunure in two stages:

    • 6th-20th July: from the harbour to the Coastal Path corner
    • 20th July to 3rd August: Coastal Path corner to Dunure Mains and the main road.

    We don’t yet know about what will happen to the chicanes on the road, which need to be re-located with a revised layout.

    Thanks go to the Community Council for their sustained pressure and to Provost Iain Campbell for his support.

    The intention is to have the works completed before the Festival of the Sea which takes place on Saturday 15th August, starting at 1:00 pm.

    Watch this space for details on traffic flow and parking arrangements.

  • The Worst Road in Scotland?

    Who can deny this is the worst road in Scotland?

    This is the main access road to Dunure from the south.
    It takes the driver past some of the best views across the bay to Culzean.

    Woe betide any driver who takes their eyes off the road for a fraction of a second though – the state of the road requires full attention!

    Thanks to June Anderson for taking the time to create, and agreeing to share, this video.

    This has been an ongoing problem for years.

    It has been discussed at Community Council multiple times – click on the tag cloud to see when.

    It was discussed again at the December Community Council meeting.

    Ayrshire Roads Alliance had been invited to attend the meeting.
    Ayrshire Roads Alliance failed to provide a representative.

    Provost Campbell undertook to ensure they attend the next meeting of the Community Council.

    If you agree that this is an urgent issue requiring our support, please make sure you attend the next meeting of the Community Council and make your views known to Ayrshire Roads Alliance.

    The next Community Council meeting is on Tuesday 20th January at 7:00 in the Kennedy Hall.
