The state of Struan’s roads was discussed at the recent Community Council Meeting. Although many potholes have been filled and some resurfacing done, there are still many potholes and dangerously uneven patches of road in need of repair. You may be aware that additional funds were made available for repairs this year but next year the current plan is for the budget to return to the previous level of circa £500,000 for Skye and it was this level of funding that allowed the roads to get into the state they have been in. We were advised by our Highland Council Rep. that the most appropriate action we can take is to continue to report all issues formally to the Highland Council. This can be done through the Highland Council web site on the following link:

https://www.highland.gov.uk/info/20005/roads_and_pavements/96/roadside_problems

Alternatively, there is an App called Fixmystreet.com that you can download to your phone which allows you to easily pinpoint your location on a map, photograph problems and report them. It will then automatically send the details you report, including pictures, on to the appropriate Council or responsible body.

The Struan Community Council would encourage you to report and re-report all road related issues on a regular basis.
