The Council seems to be in a bountiful mood this week – on top of approving an increased grant to home owners affected by the works (the council will now cover 75% of the cost) and coming up with costing for reinstating the back lanes, they have also put in place of Temporary Traffic Regulation Order (TTRO) on Strathbungo’s chunk of Nithsdale Road for Saturday 4th February in order to clear out the silt and litter that has begun blocking the drains.

Only the south side of the street (odd numbers between The Bungo and Sammy Dow’s) will be cleared this time, due to the pressure on car parking spaces and the limitations of the order, but we have urged that the north side get the same treatment ASAP.

Please make sure you are not parked on this section of the street at any time on Saturday 4th February and pass this on to anyone you know who may be using Nithsdale Road to park as it will need to be free of cars on the day for the work to take place.
