Kinloch Road

[mrn]

I was surprised to see what looks like substantial work on the pavement from the Royal Hotel to Burnside Street when I was in the town today. At the same time I feared for our car as we dodged pot hole after pot hole. Does anyone know whay the Council is spending what must be major money at a pavement when one of our main roads into the town is in a horrendous state and need of repair?

One word "ridiculous".They have been at it for the past two weeks or more?

Is the work that is going on not to do with the new " sitting oot area of the Royal Hotel", not council funded. It will be lovely sitting out there, in the shadow of the hotel, watching the wind tower sections passing by (if the factory is still open) on the new road the council has provided for them, while us mere mortals ,who pay council tax, have to dodge the pot holes throughout the rest of the town.

On a side note I wonder if you will be able to have an alcoholic drink in the "sitting oot area".

I believe this is true howls. Wonder if the bit on the Main Street side will be done too? A local company with local labour carrying out the work too so great to see.

You could always do this in Campbeltown its just an extension to your licence that includes a specific area. Not many places have the space to do it however and that has always been the problem. It just forms a designated area that falls under your licence. Bit like beer gardens do but not away out of view. The unfortunate situ of this area will be it doesn't get as much sun as round the corner on the main street. But good to see a more cosmopolitian look to the town!

Fair enough and sounds good,but I don't think it is going to extend as far back as McNairs yard or Burnside street?

The works have but the licence won't if that's what you mean Johnny? It was in the plans, an area outside the Black Sheep Pub.

All the various works going on to improve the town make it the perfect time to put the Farmers Market back into Burnside Square where it belongs.

This thread is about Kinloch Road, if you want to talk about Farmers Market/Burnside Square start your own thread and stop hijacking this one.

Is the new wider pavement not for a wider display for nickel & dime
