Developers who have applied to build over 40 new houses alongside shops have been urged to think again after facing opposition from locals.
MSP Fiona Hyslop has added her voice to concerns about the proposal from Persimmon at Wester Inch for 46 residential properties and 15 flats, as well as five commercial units and land for a future community facility.
We reported in December that the application at the site of Leyland Road/Simpson Avenue had attracted over 70 objections, with many saying the proposed development and shops will cause additional traffic – particularly at Wright Place – which will be unsafe for those living nearby.
