Lanark Road: Letter Mix-Up

Last week, a number of residents on Lanark Road contacted us having received a letter from the Council about a pavement repair programme that was about to begin.

Many residents were concerned about the breadth of the programme and the suggestion that the road might be closed for weeks on end as the works were undertaken.

We got straight on to the Transportation Department at the Council to find out the story and - thankfully - the letter had been distributed with the wrong text! A repair programme will begin on 20 January, for three months, but the works will be staggered to try to minimise inconvenience to local residents and users of the road. The road is not intended to be closed for weeks on end. Sometimes mix-ups happen! We asked for a follow-up letter to be sent around all properties in Lanark to correct the mistake and that should have been completed yesterday (Friday).

If you are a resident of Lanark Road and have any issues or comments when the works start, please don't hesitate to get in touch (maidavale@maidavaleconservatives.com).
