A problematic elevator in Cumbernauld town centre will be out of action for months.
North Lanarkshire Council (NLC) are currently considering whether to replace or refurbish the lift to the footbridge over Central Way.
Alan Masterton SNP Councillor for Cumbernauld North, had asked NLC to evaluate the costs related to both options and has been informed that even if the lift was to be refurbished – the quickest option of the two – it would remain out of action for at least seven weeks.
