Glasgow area where 'car dominance' makes walking dangerous to see changes

A Greater Pollok consultation to help decide future development in the area is underway - with dozens of complaints already pouring in from residents.

People are being asked to have their say on what should be done about an area where the council admits the amount of traffic makes walking challenging or dangerous. Social exclusion and poverty are also described as an urgent priority in the region.

So far there have been more than 200 comments, including complaints about the safety of cycle lanes in Brockburn Road with one person suggesting a bike route should be added to the pavement instead. Another person said the grass islands are overgrown while having their say on an interactive map. However the segregated cycle lane was also welcomed with one resident describing it as “great.”
