Making sure a public swimming pool reopens following more than two years of closure will be just one of the issues facing Garscadden/Scotstounhill councillors elected next month.
The pool at Glasgow Club Scotstoun was due to reopen early this year but was pushed back by Glasgow Life due to “issues outside their control”. It was announced in January that the pool would be closed for an extended period to allow £2.8 million worth of renovation work to be completed within nine months.
There are eight candidates hoping to win one of the four seats in the ward which is located in the north-west of the city and is immediately north of the River Clyde. It is next to the town of Clydebank - part of West Dunbartonshire Council - and includes the neighbourhoods of Garscadden and Scotstounhill, as well as Yoker, Scotstoun and part of Knightswood.
