South Lanarkshire's rural areas receive transport review

Rural areas in South Lanarkshire have received a wide-ranging transport review with aims to improve services.

The review was carried out by the Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance (STAG) across Clydesdale East, Clydesdale West, Clydesdale North and Clydesdale South and identified key problems, opportunities, issues, constraints and uncertainties in the area.

Chair of the council’s community and enterprise resources committee, Councillor Robert Brown, said: “It is great to see that this study has concluded following delays associated with Covid over the last couple of years.

“The recommendations emerging from the study provide an excellent platform to build upon as our rural communities recover from Covid and begin to move around again.

“Both short and long term projects have been identified and the council will look to embed these projects in our wider Local Transport Strategy which will be updated during 2023.”

The review offered options to improve transport across the Clydesdale area, the complete appraisal can be found on the council website.
