As a resident of Smith Street with a young family, I hope that some money will be allocated to the addition of speed bumps.
Looneys speed down this street at the best of times but if, for example, better car parking is introduced then the flow of traffic up this street will increase hence more looneys possibly.
It is time something positive was done at the top of Smith Street as it's become an eyesore and could be in a dangerous state. Does the Co-op still have plans to open a superstore there? I know they own most of the land there and plans were shelved because Tesco were opening up in Kilbirnie. Were the plans shelved temporarily or for good. Housing on the land would be good but what about also a mix of residential & commercial property being created? Housing for the elderly would be good as it is prime town centre land.
