MSP Sheds Some Light On New Leeds Residents' Darkness

Local MSP Stewart Stevenson has solved the mystery of disappearing street lights in the Buchan village of New Leeds.

After taking the matter up with Aberdeenshire Council, Mr Stevenson has been advised that the council will arrange for replacement lighting to be installed.

In a letter to Mr Stevenson, Aberdeenshire Council Head of Operations Mr Tom Mitchell explained that the previous street-lights which were affixed to electricity poles had been removed when Scottish & Southern Energy replaced their overhead cables. While the area in question is apparently not on the Public Register of Roads, since there was a public system of lighting there in the past the council will arrange for replacement lighting to be installed.

Mr Stevenson commented:

“I am pleased that Aberdeenshire Council have agreed to replace the missing street lights.

“It was an issue which was raised with me when I visited New Leeds on my mobile surgery tour. While it may not be a major issue, it is things like this that contribute to the quality of life and was obviously a concern in New Leeds.”
