  1. This is not something the people of Dennistoun and Calton want, you are cutting off a vital link to our district and other locations VIA the motorway never mind the ROYAL Infirmary, Springburn. It’s bloody ridiculous Duke St as a popular thriving business will die.

    1. Thanks for commenting, Caroline.

      Dennistoun CC hasn’t yet seen the proposals, so can’t provide specific details at this stage, but it’s important that all concerns are heard, understood and acknowledged as part of this consultation.

      Could you clarify on the point about areas being cut off by the proposed Avenue, and/or the effect on Duke Street?
