Morrisons clashes with council over road safety

Morrisons has revised its plans for a new supermarket to be located in the Summerhill area of Aberdeen.


The supermarket giant had lodged a bid with Aberdeen City Council to build a new store on the Lang Stracht.

General Manager at the Morrisons King Street store, Sean Carty was optimistic that the new store would "release pressure" on the King Street supermarket which is very busy.

The company have now changed their plans to build a store in this location amid safety concerns over road congestion.


Morrisons now plans to remove all bus lanes near the prospective store to secure planning permission from the council.
