Call for redesign of main Govan roads to improve cycling and walking routes A GREEN councillor is calling for main roads in Govan to be redesigned to improve walking and cycling routes. Councillor Allan Young has urged city council leaders to act after the area missed out on a share of a £7.5m fund. None of the Spaces for People money – for temporary measures to provide space for walking and cycling during the pandemic – has been spent in Govan. Cllr Young believes people are reluctant to cycle on roads such as Paisley Road West and Edmiston Drive. He said: “The significant levels of air pollution, poor crossing points and lack of segregated cycle lanes puts off many local people from walking and cycling in Govan.
