This shows the beauty & unique biodiversity along Auchenhowie Rd & Dougalston area. Protecting this ecosystem is essential for local wildlife, personal health & wellbeing & for the benefit of future generations! #ProtectAndPreserve Jordan Shepherd NatureScot SustransCymru

Some interesting points that are hard to ignore given the uniqueness of the area & lack of rigour of the report. โ€˜Dunbartonshire residents call halt on ยฃ5 million cycle route over threat to historic area!โ€™ ann davie Ross Greer NatureScot Jim Gibbons Mark Daly East Dun Council

East Dun Council There was no consultation with the 150 residents of Fairways or the 150 businesses in Milngavie Town Centre..shocking that a project of this scale and cost gets the go ahead based on less than 300 people showing interest.. more consultation and clear costs need to happen

If a residents group fails to pause the A807 project for more public feedback, commuters, business, trees & wildlife will all be impacted. In a last bid, the group gathered 700+ survey responses in under a wk, more than double what EDC received in 4 wks! Results powerful. #A807

EDC states, โ€™this is not a fully funded project. Its delivery will require external funding to be secured & the use of secured developer contributions. This project does not have an allocation in the 30-Year Capital Programmeโ€™ So works begins without funding certainty #alarmbells

If coming for this lovely event remember 19 weeks of road works to navigate if passing through the A807 Auchenhowie Road - hoping this doesnโ€™t affect too many of our local businesses. #A807 #RoadWorks #Milngavie #Christmas
