The High Street Of Paisley

Recommended Posts


High St opens up to traffic on Mon at 18:30.

Now here's the good bit.....The only access will be from Moss St via County Place and Gilmour St,past the Cenotaph on to the High St.There will be no entry from Gauze St or St Mirren Street.

This means if you're at the North End of Town you won't have the drive round the one way system to access the Town Centre.

Re-opening the street to cars in its current form is utterly ridiculous. 2 previous attempts have failed, the public in general are not on board, yet the council bow to the wisdom of a few pound shop retailers.

Half arsed scheme that should never have got off the ground.

Are you not keen on it, then?

I would find it hard to describe the works undertaken to re-open the high street as anything other than negligent. And that isn't a word that should be used lightly.

The finished "scheme" is nothing short of shambolic. Everyone and anyone involved in it should embarrassed and ashamed.

Not only is the delineation between pavement and road almost non-existent and the signage inadequate, but they've actually left granite plinths in the middle of the fecking carriageway.

Being keen on it is the least of our problems.

If this is representative of how Renfrewshire Council manage road safety across the area then we've got problems.

You only have to look at the battle damaged road surfaces in the area , that they turn a blind eye to know that , road safety is low on their priority lists. .
