Just a wee picture to remember people

Can the people complaining about the sewer upgrade work getting done in the town not remember Campbeltown getting flooded with raw sewage on a regular bases with many local shops having to close due to damage to their premises and stock, people wading knee deep in it to save cars,not to mention all the raw sewage getting pumped straight into the loch! Surly having to wait at traffic lights is a small price to pay to have this problem solved..

You certainly have vaild points dustybin. The traffic lights are inconvenience at the most - that is all. Certainly could be more help as to who has right of way but it is fun!

I think the deeper concern is the delay in the completion of work when the town is about to enter the easter holidays. Hardly ideal.

Yes the traffic lights are a pain but hopefully good things will come from the wait?! As to the time of year when would be a good time??? No matter what time the work is getting done it would be wrong! Think everyone should put up with the lights and road works and keep some fingers crossed that the new system works!! As for the traffic lights set-up, they are very confusing, but if there was more common sense and a bit more patience then I am sure we would get on with it.

Meant to post back on this to say totally agree with regards your sentiments of the works being carried out to benefit the town in the long run.

With regards the timing the works were specifically allocated to try and avoid any peak times for holidays. The fact remains the works have now exceeded their proposed schedule but not just a week or so but by nearly double and unfortunately have impacted on one of the busier periods of time for the town in terms of school holidays and the easter weekend. It isn't pretty to say the least.

We can only hope the work is completed for the MOKRUN weekend!!!
