Demand to reinstate safety measures in Dennistoun Low Traffic Neighbourhood

Thomas Cornwallis CYCLE campaigners are calling for the immediate reinstatement of safety measures removed from a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood. The Glasgow Times told in February how council bosses had opted to take away a number of contraflow cycle lanes in Dennistoun to allow for kerbside parking. Bike experts claim the move will make roads less safe and discourage people from cycling - the opposite of the scheme s intention. Cycling advocacy group GoBike has now written to Glasgow City Council and local councillors to share its concerns. Thomas Cornwallis, co-convenor of GoBike, said there has as yet been no response.

Bollards could be installed in bid to tackle irresponsible drivers at Kelvin Way

The road through Kelvingrove Park is temporarily closed to vehicles to allow social distancing during the pandemic. Campaigners, presenting a petition calling for action to address “daily dangers”, said issues have “now shifted over to University Avenue”. They asked for segregated cycle lanes to be rolled out but were told that would narrow the lanes “below the safe limit”. A council officer added a full redesign of the roads was not possible until it was clear whether Kelvin Way would be closed permanently. The petition, signed by 179 people, claimed “inconsiderate behaviour” peaks from the University Union bus stop along the approach to the junction of Kelvin Way and up University Avenue”.
