Maintaining our pavements is a priority

Over the last year, there has been ongoing concern about the poor state of the pavement on Great George Street. 

This is a busy pedestrian thoroughfare. It is the most direct route for many students going to and from Hillhead Subway and their classes at the University of Glasgow.

The uneven surface and cracks in the surface have been highlighted to council officials and they have been requested to treat these defects as a top priority.

Residents have shared concern that this pavement is even more dangerous when there is heavy rainfall. There are worries about the increased risk of accidents if there is cold, icy weather.
