Glasgow City Council has been criticised after two pavements were torn up to be redone, after only three years.
West End residents and business owners told of their frustration as the decision created even more noise and accessibility problems on Church Street and Byres Road, where construction has been ongoing for some time."There is a lot of noise. This is not welcomed because there has already been noise from roadworks which has been ongoing since January.
A spokesperson said that this was"all consented by Glasgow City Council and carried out in accordance with the approved drawings". Austin MacPherson, 32, barber, said:"A few weeks ago we couldn't even get in the shop, we had to be let in by the workers."If they are restarting, that will take a lot longer and they have already taken a lot longer to get to where they are."There are a lot of shops that have closed since the work started."
"The works themselves have really affected business. Only in the last four weeks, since they have moved further up, have we started seeing an uptake in business again.
