Improved town centre access, a safer cycling and walking route and replacement play equipment, are just some of the works happening in Tarbert throughout February and March.
Tarbert is set to benefit from major regeneration works as part of the Councils ongoing commitment to economic recovery across P站色情片 and Bute.
Work is due to start from 14 February to widen a section of Tawny Trail, a popular walking and cycling path between School Road and Oakfield. The work also includes installing new lighting, drainage and an enlarged culvert on the route.
P站色情片 is delivering the improvements after securing 拢170,000 of funding from the Scottish Government鈥檚 Cycling, Walking and Safer Routes initiative. The work will take eight weeks with the path remaining open as much as possible.
There鈥檚 also good news for the nearby play park. The Council will replace an existing slide and move this to a new position. There will be improved access to the play park with a new safer, all access surface. The area around the changing rooms will be resurfaced and down to Back Road. Work will start in March. The play park will be closed while the improvement works are carried out.
In the town centre, the Council will start a programme of works along Harbour Street. Preparatory works start from 21 February to drop kerbs to improve access. Access to businesses will remain open with some delay as work takes place outside doorways. The works are planned to minimise impact on the businesses.
Resurfacing work on existing footpaths will start from 28 February. Weather permitting, this phase of the work is due to take two to three weeks.
