Ruling clears obstacles on route to bypass – by 2017

 

By Ryan Crighton

 

Published: 12/08/2011

 

Drivers could be on Aberdeen’s long-awaited bypass by 2017 after a judge cleared the way for the road to be built.

 

The legal challenge which has held up the city’s Western Peripheral Route was dismissed at the Court of Session yesterday.

 

The decision was met with relief by First Minister Alex Salmond and business leaders, who said the north-east’s congestion nightmare would soon be over.

 

[Tyrant]

STFU the fuck up and fucking build it, thank you please.

[glasgow sheep]

So it comes down to the age-old question.  What will we see first the AWPR or the New Stadium?

Place your bets

[Superstar Tradesman]

BAAAHAHAHA!! 

[Tyrant]

Neither.

How exactly, it's got funding and it's been approved.

I guess because a big road like that takes a while to build? Although I don't know enough about building roads to know how long it should take.

 

My guess is they're still scrutinising the route to see where else they can stick some round-abouts, traffic lights, 20 mph zones and zebra crossings to make the road as much of a PITA in the ass to negotiate as possible. See every other fucking road in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire as reference.

It depends, but one thing for sure is that it'll take a fuck longer if they never start building the fucker.

If its not in the central belt then it doesnt need to be done properly. THiss NEEDS to be a proper  upgrade to a motorway or it just wont work.  If this is the case then Aberdeen as per usual when major ifrastructure projects are dished out get second best.  A petition needs to happen to get a REAL WPR which is both useful and safe. Edinburgh or Galsgow wouldnt tolerate second best.

 

They've done such a good job at castlecary that I no longer have an On ramp. Shambles with no concern for public convenience or safety. A few thousand extra cars through castlecary village twice a day must have them singing the praises of this fantastic construction work !!

The chairman of a group opposed to the construction of the Aberdeen bypass has said it was "moving towards" a fresh legal challenge.

 

For the love of fuck.

Surely there is a limit to this fucking bullshit?

[Madbadteacher]

At this rate we'll have run out of oil before the damn thing's built!

[Kowalski]

I see the tax payer is funding the appeal and its not likely to be heard until next year.  What a shower of cunts.

"William Walton" doesn't sound like a local name to me.

RoadSense defends Aberdeen bypass challenge

Campaigners set to challenge AWPR

 

By David Ewen chief reporter

 

Published: 29/08/2011

 

THE chairman of Aberdeen bypass campaigners RoadSense has defended the group’s stance.

 

William Walton  of RoadSense is set to challenge the planned Aberdeen bypass in the courts again, which means it might not be ready until nearer 2018.

 

William Walton said: “Our group is not necessarily opposed to a bypass in principle. We take the view that this particular route is going to be hugely expensive and is not a good use of public resources.”

But repeatedly dragging the council through the court and delaying the project, thus inevitably increasing the overall cost is a good use of public resources?

Of course this has nothing to do with Nimbyism at all 

 

Fucking eedjits

Send the author an email and tell them they're a cunt. I honestly don't think the pro campaign has been very vociferous, and probably has led to this muppets thinking they've got the necessary support.

The boy William Walton seemingly lives in Westhill so he's not even going to be disrupted by the AWPR route.

The cunts are pressing ahead with their appeal anyway:
