Getting things done – Seabraes viewing area #dundeewestend

We recently had a query regarding the redevelopment of the Seabraes viewing area.


The path surfacing was looking odd as new black tarmac was placed on a section of the path (see photo) which looked poor next to the original buff colour.

We contacted the council’s Projects Team Leader who reassured us as follows :

“The buff resin bond surfacing is due to be laid around the benches. It should be noted that the new resin bond colour will appear brighter than the original surfacing due to weathering but will blend in over time.”
