Councillor frustrated at speed of road repairs

Cramond Avenue, Craigielea Road and Arkleston Road are among the 53 that are in line for a makeover in 2025/26 as part of the local authority's £90 million decade-long investment.

But Councillor Jamie McGuire, a Labour representative for Renfrew North and Braehead, was less than impressed by the area's coverage in the list shared earlier this month.

He said: "While any investment in our local infrastructure is welcome, it is clear that this falls far short of what residents deserve.

"Each week, I am inundated with concerns from constituents about potholes, crumbling footpaths and dangerous road surfaces across the town.
