<h2 class="wp-block-heading">All or nothing?</h2>



<p>After the recent wave of consultations things have calmed down a bit. There&#8217;s a new consultation for Castle Semple Country Park in Renfrewshire. Also, something on the horizon for a roundabout junction in Pollok. </p>



<p>It&#8217;s the last call for Glasgow&#8217;s District consultations and one in Lanarkshire. The Southside Liveable Neighbourhoods consultations have finished but there&#8217;s a few more weeks for the north-west and north-east LNs. </p>



<span id="more-19318"></span>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Forthcoming consultations</h3>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Barrhead Road/Peat Road/Brockburn Road/Braidcraft Road roundabout junction</h4>



<p>This busy, car dominated junction is north-west of Silverburn shopping centre. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/RozaSalihSNP/posts/pfbid02HNEom6F1jqa4VpJLLeofXywSigo3VEykjpWrWXSKpuyj4vWJzEKNVDefj2SAucxjl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Initial plans were shared by a Greater Pollok <a href="https://www.facebook.com/RozaSalihSNP/posts/pfbid02HNEom6F1jqa4VpJLLeofXywSigo3VEykjpWrWXSKpuyj4vWJzEKNVDefj2SAucxjl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">councillor</a></a> as mobile phone screenshots on Facebook. They&#8217;re a bit hard to see but there are no obvious active travel links. She suggests there could be a consultation in early March (or April) but no sign so far.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="one-one">1.1: North East Districts: Townhead, Cowcaddens, Learning Quarter and Merchant City DRF</h4>



<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>Glasgow City.<br><strong>Subject:&nbsp;</strong>District Regeneration Frameworks for four areas in the north-east of the city centre. These were developed by teams of European and local consultants after previous&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gobike.org/consultation-digest-local-issue-74-24-november-2020-12604#one-two">consultation in late 2020</a>. Each document has a comprehensive plan for its area (50+ pages). These include some fairly radical changes, especially around the M8. Also, there is a refreshing focus on opening up active travel routes through current barriers (improving permeability). However, these may be challenging to deliver. So, a show of support in the consultation should help make the case stronger.<br><strong>Website links:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/NE_DRF_2023/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">North-East Districts survey</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58888&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">North-East Districts Combined Regeneration Handbook</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58891&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cowcaddens Regeneration Handbook</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58889&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">‘Learning Quarter’ Regeneration Handbook</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58890&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Merchant City Regeneration Handbook</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58892&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Townhead Regeneration Handbook</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;3 March 2023.</strong></p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="one-two">1.2: NCN74 Uddingston to Bothwell realignment</h4>



<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>South Lanarkshire.<br><strong>Subject:</strong>&nbsp;A long-awaited consultation about plans to divert a section of NCN74 at Strathclyde Park. The current route loops up the (steep) Furlongs, onto Bothwell Rd, up alongside the East Kilbride Expressway to Glasgow Rd, down Station Rd in Blantyre to the pedestrian bridge and up to Station Rd in Bothwell. These proposals would change this to a much more direct route from the Raith Interchange, up the steep, pot-holed Langside Rd and across the busy Hamilton Rd on the way to Station Rd. There’s a potential alternative to SLC’s plans (slightly longer but less steep/busy) by turning right onto Laighlands Rd/Bothwellpark Rd then across to Olifard Ave/Appledore Cres. Also, there’s the question of conflict with pedestrians past Strathclyde Park loch. Elsewhere, the survey has two options to transform the approach to Uddingston train station and some other welcome junction improvements.<br><strong>Website links:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.southlanarkshire.gov.uk/info/200147/transport_and_streets/2115/active_travel_projects/4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Uddingston to Bothwell survey</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;6 March 2023.</strong></p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="one-three">1.3: Liveable Neighbourhoods – Yoker to Whiteinch</h4>



<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>Glasgow City.<br><strong>Areas:&nbsp;</strong>Yoker, Scotstoun, Jordanhill and Whiteinch.<br><strong>Subject:&nbsp;</strong>A Liveable Neighbourhoods area in the north-west of the city. These areas featured in a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juD8-L4_qp4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">recent cycling video by John Munro</a>&nbsp;of Birmingham University. Within it, he highlighted the gap in cycling provision between the end of the old railway path at South St and the busy Thornwood Roundabout on Dumbarton Rd. Meanwhile, the former Jordanhill Training College site is one of the bigger new housing developments in the wider area. The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.my-gln.scot/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MyGLN website</a>&nbsp;seems to have been set up for this Liveable Neighbourhood and Royston to Hogganfield. It’s run by the companies&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mottmac.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mott MacDonald</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.urbanmovement.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Urban Movement</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://new-practice.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New Practice</a>. The latter recently paid&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/_newpractice/status/1620468117221826560?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">tribute to Emma Newman on Twitter</a>.<br><strong>Website links:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://yoker-to-whiteinch-ln-glasgowgis.hub.arcgis.com/pages/have-your-say" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Yoker to Whiteinch LN consultation page</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;19 March 2023.</strong></p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="one-four">1.4: Liveable Neighbourhoods – Royston to Hogganfield</h4>



<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>Glasgow City.<br><strong>Areas:&nbsp;</strong>Royston, Sighthill, Germiston, Blackhill and Hogganfield.<br><strong>Subject:&nbsp;</strong>Neighbourhoods in the north-east of the city between the M8 and the railway. Furthest west is Sighthill, which is nearing completion after a total rebuilt in the last few years. East of Springburn Road are Royston and Germiston and their main street, Royston Rd. It hasn’t got any cycling infrastructure on the flat but was the subject of a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gobike.org/consultation-digest-local-issue-93-17-august-2021-14883#one-five" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">project by Rosemount Development Trust</a>&nbsp;in 2021. Where Royston Rd climbs up to Blackhill there’s the Spaces for People cycle lanes. Another project,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gobike.org/consultation-digest-local-issue-91-20-july-2021-14629#one-two">Flourishing Molendinar</a>, have big plans for Blackhill, Cumbernauld Rd (by Hogganfield Park) and the bridge to Smithycroft/Riddrie. Hogganfield Loch is part of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sevenlochs.org/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=41788&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seven Lochs Wetland Park (PDF map)</a>. So, better links to the rest of Glasgow would have wider benefits for people going to/from North Lanarkshire.<br><strong>Website links:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://royston-to-hogganfield-ln-glasgowgis.hub.arcgis.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Royston to Hogganfield LN consultation page</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;19 March 2023.</strong></p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="one-five">1.5: Castle Semple Country Park Vision</h4>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-recalc-dims="1" fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="525" height="371" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.gobike.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/castle-semple-forum-boards-1.jpg?resize=525%2C371&#038;ssl=1" alt="Castle Semple Country Park vision" class="wp-image-19333" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/www.gobike.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/castle-semple-forum-boards-1.jpg?resize=600%2C424&amp;ssl=1 600w, https://i0.wp.com/www.gobike.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/castle-semple-forum-boards-1.jpg?resize=300%2C212&amp;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/www.gobike.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/castle-semple-forum-boards-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1085&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/www.gobike.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/castle-semple-forum-boards-1.jpg?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https://i0.wp.com/www.gobike.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/castle-semple-forum-boards-1.jpg?w=1050&amp;ssl=1 1050w" sizes="(max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px" /></figure>



<p><strong>Council: </strong>Renfrewshire.<br><strong>Area: </strong>Castle Semple Country Park, Lochwinnoch.<br><strong>Subject:</strong> <em>“Local residents and businesses are being invited to share their views on the tourism potential of Castle Semple Country Park in Lochwinnoch.”</em> Active travel and a possible cycle hub are included in the survey questions. NCN7 runs past the loch on a former railway line, linking to Kilburnie, Johnstone and Paisley. However, active travel access between the park and other places, like Howwood, can be a bit patchy. The ‘virtual consultation event’ is similar to a previous one for <a href="https://www.gobike.org/consultation-digest-local-issue-75-8-december-2020-12699#one-three" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Make Your Way</a>.<br><strong>Website links:</strong> <a href="http://www.ironsidefarrar.com/castlesemple.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Castle Semple virtual consultation</a>.<br><strong>Deadline: 26 March 2023.</strong></p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>2: Consultation Feedback</strong></h3>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="two-one">2.1: Accessible and Inclusive Design Forum – committee report</h4>



<p><strong>Council: </strong>Glasgow City.<br><strong>Subject: </strong>Originally called the Accessible Design Forum, this group was set up in the wake of <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-60431429" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">concerns about the new Sauchiehall Avenue</a>. It&#8217;s meant to be a platform for disability and active travel organisations to discuss upcoming plans. A report to GCC&#8217;s City Policy committee summarises its first few meetings and next steps. One of the key areas under discussion are so-called ‘floating bus stops’. These avoid conflict between buses and people cycling by putting segregated cycle lanes behind bus stops. Pedestrians cross to the bus stop island by a short mini-zebra. However, groups for visually impaired people say the use of uncontrolled crossings makes bus stops inaccessible for blind people. There are already floating bus stops on the South City Way and Garscube Rd with more due to follow in future projects. The same <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/councillorsandcommittees/agenda.asp?meetingid=18860" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">committee also heard updates on George Square/Avenues and the Clyde Metro</a>.<br><strong>Website links:</strong> <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/councillorsandcommittees/submissiondocuments.asp?submissionid=107891" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">AIDF report for City Policy committee</a>.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>3: Proposed Traffic Regulation Orders</strong></h3>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="three-one">3.1: East Dunbartonshire TROs</h4>

<p>Another four consultations at once – this time, Liveable Neighbourhoods in Glasgow. Two on the Southside, one for the north-west and one for north-east. Also, new visualisations came out for some of the earlier LN projects (see featured images on this post). A few of South Lanarkshire&#8217;s consultations are ongoing and there&#8217;s a new one from North Lanarkshire. </p>



<p><em>Consultation events</em> –&nbsp;Palacerigg, Cumbernauld has a drop-in event TODAY (1–8pm) and Mansewood to Shawlands LN has an event tomorrow (17 Feb, 4–7pm). See below for details…</p>

<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>South Lanarkshire.<br><strong>Subject:&nbsp;</strong>A large rural area divided into southern, north-west and north-east areas for these projects. Like previous studies in South Lanarkshire’s towns, there’s a consultation map to comment on.

<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>Glasgow City.<br><strong>Areas: </strong>Pollokshields East, Govanhill, Tradeston and ‘Greater Gorbals’.<br><strong>Subject:&nbsp;</strong>A consultation on neighbourhoods that aren&#8217;t obvious bedfellows. A different grouping was used for the <a href="https://www.gobike.org/consultation-digest-local-issue-118-1-september-2022-18246#one-twelve" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">South Central Local Development Framework</a> (SCLDF) last year. The southern bit missing is Polmadie, which was tacked onto the Langside to Toryglen LN. Govanhill is one of the most densely populated areas in the city. It contains most of Victoria Rd, with the South City Way, and part of Pollokshaws Rd. The Gorbals (and Hutchesontown) has been almost entirely demolished and rebuilt since the 1950s with mixed results. More recent regeneration has included the rebuilt footbridge to new flats in Oatlands and Richmond Park. Also, the Barclays campus in Tradeston with bike links to the South West City Way and along the former Clyde Place.

<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>Glasgow City.<br><strong>Subject:&nbsp;</strong>District Regeneration Frameworks for four areas in the north-east of the city centre. These were developed by teams of European and local consultants after previous&nbsp;<a href="https://www.gobike.org/consultation-digest-local-issue-74-24-november-2020-12604#one-two">consultation in late 2020</a>. Each document has a comprehensive plan for its area (50+ pages). These include some fairly radical changes, especially around the M8. Also, there is a refreshing focus on opening up active travel routes through current barriers (improving permeability). However, these may be challenging to deliver. So, a show of support in the consultation should help make the case stronger.<br><strong>Website links:</strong> <a href="https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/NE_DRF_2023/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">North-East Districts survey</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58888&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">North-East Districts Combined Regeneration Handbook</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58891&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cowcaddens Regeneration Handbook</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58889&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">‘Learning Quarter’ Regeneration Handbook</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58890&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Merchant City Regeneration Handbook</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58892&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Townhead Regeneration Handbook</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;3 March 2023.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>South Lanarkshire.<br><strong>Subject:</strong>&nbsp;A long-awaited consultation about plans to divert a section of NCN74 at Strathclyde Park. The current route loops up the (steep) Furlongs, onto Bothwell Rd, up alongside the East Kilbride Expressway to Glasgow Rd, down Station Rd in Blantyre to the pedestrian bridge and up to Station Rd in Bothwell. These proposals would change this to a much more direct route from the Raith Interchange, up the steep, pot-holed Langside Rd and across the busy Hamilton Rd on the way to Station Rd. There’s a potential alternative to SLC’s plans (slightly longer but less steep/busy) by turning right onto Laighlands Rd/Bothwellpark Rd then across to Olifard Ave/Appledore Cres. Also, there’s the question of conflict with pedestrians past Strathclyde Park loch. Elsewhere, the survey has two options to transform the approach to Uddingston train station and some other welcome junction improvements.<br><strong>Website links:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.southlanarkshire.gov.uk/info/200147/transport_and_streets/2115/active_travel_projects/4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Uddingston to Bothwell survey</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;6 March 2023.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>Glasgow City.<br><strong>Subject:&nbsp;</strong>New visualisations of projects from the first tranche of Liveable Neighbourhoods. Carntyne Square is shown for Dennistoun to Cranhill LN. The Langside to Toryglen LN has a view of the Battle of Langside monument. There&#8217;s a view of the Dummy Railway path for Ruchill to Cowlairs LN. Most interesting is the view of Paisley Road West, Cessnock for the Govan to Kingston LN. It seems to ‘put a marker down’ for cycletracks on PRW. However, the recent <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/councillorsandcommittees/submissiondocuments.asp?submissionid=107637" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Glasgow Bus Partnership report to GCC</a> only mentioned bus lanes, not bike lanes.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">In the shadow of the bridge…</h2>



<p>February sees an increase in number and scale of consultations. This (delayed) Digest  includes four District Regeneration Frameworks and four projects from South Lanarkshire.</p>



<p>Tragically, January ended with the death of Emma Burke Newman, after being hit by a truck driver while cycling near the Broomielaw/George V bridge junction in Glasgow. Her local <a href="https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/23292917.cyclist-died-glasgow-student-art-school/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">councillor Jon Molyneux paid tribute to Emma at a meeting to discuss a 20mph limit</a> for the city. GoBike would like to offer sincere condolences to Emma&#8217;s family and friends. </p>

<p>The road past the casino is part of the Spaces for People 1-way route along the Clyde. The council mentioned <a href="https://www.gobike.org/consultation-digest-issue-60-12-may-2020-the-lockdown-goes-on-but-will-we-learn-from-it-11199" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">safety at the George V bridge junction</a> in an online meeting with GoBike in 2020.

The <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/article/26310/Clyde-St-Pop-Up-Cycle-Lane-Sees-Surge-in-Cycling" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cones were replaced with ‘soft segregation’ later in 2020</a> but some sections of the <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/qe1Dbkjt55BL9cbw8" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Zebras/‘orcas’ near the bridge have since been removed</a>.

However, no further segregation has been added near the casino (unlike the <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/77UfhsP6gvfxjNU56" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">traffic islands</a> and ongoing work at the Jamaica St junction). Tragic events like this underline how important it is to have continuous protected routes, especially at junctions. </p>

<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>South Lanarkshire.<br><strong>Subject:</strong>&nbsp;Survey about feasibility of a bike share scheme for Cambuslang and Rutherglen. Shawfield and Cuningar Woodland Park on the northern fringes of Rutherglen are just across the Clyde from the Glasgow City area. So, it’s an obvious candidate for extending Glasgow’s current OVO/Nextbike scheme. This has been&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/south-lanarkshire-bike-share-scheme-19959665" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">talked about by South Lanarkshire Council</a>&nbsp;before and there has already been some consultation on it. In the meantime, new Nextbike stations in the East End and Southside mean Rutherglen already looks like a gap in the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.schemestats.bike/schemes/nextbike-glasgow/liveMap" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">existing network</a>. Hopefully we’re closer to a scheme actually happening this time. The survey is aimed at those in the Cam/glen area but may be relevant to people in the Southside and East End of the city.<br><strong>Website links:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=DwvXh_xekUmgZeIFvD2zCB8HDqrd58xFiY6b3P9nhNRUMDZCTEFKM1pKVkFWWlBBV0NNUTlMUjU4Ry4u" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cambuslang/Rutherglen bike share survey</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;10 February 2023.&nbsp;</strong></p>

The project plans include 20mph speed limits and slight changes to junctions. Also, lots of coloured surfacing, including some being used instead of proper pavements. Village streets are obviously narrower than towns and cities but it seems like a missed opportunity.

<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>South Lanarkshire.<br><strong>Subject:&nbsp;</strong>Leadhills is also covered by this wider consultation –&nbsp;it&#8217;s in the southern part of Clydesdale. There are also north-west and north-east areas to divide up this large rural area. Like previous studies in South Lanarkshire&#8217;s towns, there&#8217;s a consultation map to comment on. Some areas have new active travel infrastructure, including Carstairs, with other routes like Leadhills–Wanlockhead to follow. This is a chance to look at gaps like Make Your Way&#8217;s <a href="https://www.gobike.org/consultation-digest-local-issue-102-23-december-2021-16327#two-six" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NCN74–Douglas path, which missed out on funding</a>.

Each document has a comprehensive plan for its area (50+ pages). These include some fairly radical changes, especially around the M8. Also, there is a refreshing focus on opening up active travel routes through current barriers (improving permeability). However, these may be challenging to deliver. So, a show of support in the consultation should help make the case stronger.<br><strong>Website links:</strong> <a href="https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/NE_DRF_2023/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">North-East Districts survey</a>, <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58888&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">North-East Districts Combined Regeneration Handbook</a>, <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58891&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cowcaddens Regeneration Handbook</a>, <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58889&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">‘Learning Quarter’ Regeneration Handbook</a>, <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58890&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Merchant City Regeneration Handbook</a>, <a href="https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=58892&amp;p=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Townhead Regeneration Handbook</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;3 March 2023.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Council:&nbsp;</strong>South Lanarkshire.<br><strong>Subject:</strong>&nbsp;A long-awaited consultation about plans to divert a section of NCN74 at Strathclyde Park. The current route loops up the (steep) Furlongs, onto Bothwell Rd, up alongside the East Kilbride Expressway to Glasgow Rd, down Station Rd in Blantyre to the pedestrian bridge and up to Station Rd in Bothwell. The proposals would change this to a much more direct route from the Raith Interchange, up the steep, pot-holed Langside Rd and across the busy Hamilton Rd on the way to Station Rd. There&#8217;s a potential alternative to SLC&#8217;s plans (slightly longer but less steep/busy) by turning right onto Laighlands Rd/Bothwellpark Rd then across to Olifard Ave/Appledore Cres. Also, there&#8217;s the question of conflict with pedestrians past Strathclyde Park loch. Elsewhere, the survey has two options to transform the approach to Uddingston train station and some other welcome junction improvements.<br><strong>Website links:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.southlanarkshire.gov.uk/info/200147/transport_and_streets/2115/active_travel_projects/4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Uddingston to Bothwell survey</a>.<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp;6 March 2023.</strong></p>
