A98 Closure gets P&J Front Cover

Following the most recent heavy rain the main A98 coast road from Fochabers to Banff was closed at Cullen following flood damage to a key road bridge. Motorist and local residents face a 20-mile diversion and local shops are experiencing a dramatic fall in business. Repairs are expected to last 3-4 weeks.
