New Falkirk flats get go-ahead despite fears over busy Bonnybridge road

Six new flats are to be built on the site of the former library in Bonnybridge as plans got the go-ahead despite a councillor's safety concerns.

Members of Falkirk Council's planning committee agreed today (Wednesday) to give Robert Arbuckle planning permission to build the two-bedroom flats with car parking at land to the south of 1 - 9 Bridge Street, Bonnybridge.

The site has been vacant since the original library was demolished and is now covered in scrub. Although planning permission for new flats had previously been granted it had come to nothing.
