A MAJOR project to tackle sewer flooding is almost complete.

Scottish Water’s multi-million-pound project, which began in Giffnock in June 2022 - is set to finish in July. 

But first, the latest phase of the scheme is about to commence with work being undertaken to connect a stormwater storage tank and overflow pipe.

From Monday, March 27, access to Braidbar Farm Road will be from the direction of Giffnock Police Station along Braidholm Road.

Glasgow Times:

Traffic lights will still be in operation at the junction of Braidholm Road and Braidbar Farm Road, however, the lights at the Whitton Drive junction will be changed to a ‘Give Way’ sign.

 

Georgina Reid, Scottish Water’s corporate affairs manager in the west, said: “We are approaching the finishing line for this much-needed project.

“The main elements of the works are nearing completion and it is now all about joining them together.

“This will come as welcome news to local residents, particularly those who have been impacted by the road closure and traffic management.

“They have coped extremely well with the disruption, and we would like to thank them for their continued patience and understanding.”
