An online campaign for a flyover at a notorious Mearns blackspot has now gathered almost 1,500 members.
The Facebook page was set up by Jill Fotheringham, who has been campaigning with the Laurencekirk Development Trust for a flyover at the Montrose to Laurencekirk junction for several years.
Florist Jill started pressuring politicians for action after she become tired of continually producing wreaths for families of tragic victims.
However, Transport Scotland have failed to commit to any spending, despite the tiny stretch of the A90 accounting for around one in 12 fatalities on the 170-mile route.
Jill said: “We want to reach out to as many people as possible.
“Of course the page is not everyone’s cup of tea, but we are trying to make a wee statement and hopefully a huge difference. I am overwhelmed by the support.
“I thank all those too who are taking the time to post their views and experiences.”
Members of the public have signed up to the page and have been sharing their experiences of the junction that carries approximately 18,000 traffic movements daily.
The North East transport partnership, Nestrans, also backs the campaign for a grade-separated junction.
Jill stated: “The A937/A90 Montrose to Laurencekirk Junction has long been known as notorious and dangerous. It has been the scene of fatalities, several serious accidents and countless minor accidents and near misses in recent years.
“The A937 is the only A road on the A90 without a graded junction. The campaign to have this junction upgraded with a flyover has gone on for a long time now.
“Crossing this junction on a stretch of road which carries approximately 18,000 traffic movements daily brings long delays frustration and anger to those who use it.
“Following a fatality in 2004 a petition was started and collected 6,800 signatures. The outcome of this was a 50mph speed limit put in place in 2005.
“These safety measures are not working, with countless motorists ignoring the limits. The junction is not coping with the volume of traffic using it and action is needed now.”
