Local politicians have secured a commitment from TSB to ensure banking facilities will remain in Lanark.
Customers had faced a 30-mile round trip to Motherwell to access their nearest bank after TSB announced in December it would close 70 branches, including the one in the town's Bannatyne Street.
But this week, the firm have confirmed a pop-up branch will be introduced on a trial basis for six months due to Lanark’s "unique rural circumstances".
