Link Road
This project lies at the heart of the regeneration initiative and is programmed to open late November 2010.
Once complete this 4km road will:
• Link Kirkintilloch to Scotland’s motorway system for the first time
• Run from Kirkintilloch town centre to Hornshill interchange at the M80 Stepps by-pass
• Provide benefits to the local economy, jobs and businesses and a better quality of life
• Improve the environment and public safety by diverting heavy traffic away from residential areas and the existing Kirkintilloch / Lenzie road
• Conserve and significantly enhance the landscape and environment immediately surrounding the road
• Create a brand new area of wetland to protect and attract wildlife, including birds, fish, otters and water voles
The Project Champion and Community Representatives for this project are: Colin Smith, Allan Jarvis and Brian Rourke.
