  • (Mount Florida) (Traffic Regulation) Order 201 Report
    The Glasgow City Council (Mount Florida) (Traffic Regulation) Order 201_ Report The Mount Florida area has been identified as being negatively affected by the current parking and loading arrangements. Glasgow City Council has been working closely with the local community council to improve the existing parking restrictions in the area. The specific objective was to assist the local community by reducing the parking restrictions on Cathcart Road and to facilitate business activities allowing all vehicle types to utilize the designated loading areas. In addition to the above, the Council are taking the opportunity to improve parking practices and road safety within the adjoining residential areas. This includes ensuring crossing points are accessible, sightlines at junctions are sufficient and generally parking practices are safe and not obstructive. Each element of the proposals is detailed below:- No waiting at any time, no loading or unloading at any time These restrictions are proposed at locations where waiting and loading is deemed unsafe in terms of road safety or pedestrian safety or could negatively affect traffic flow or manoeuvres. No waiting at any time, no loading or unloading at any time, except taxis This restriction relates to the existing taxi rank on Carmunnock Road, north of Letherby Drive. The legislation which covers this taxi rank is covered within an older traffic regulation order therefore it has been consolidated into these proposals, however, there will be no changes to the restrictions of this taxi rank. No waiting at any time These restrictions are proposed where waiting is deemed undesirable in terms of road safety or pedestrian safety, however loading or unloading could occur at these locations by any class of vehicle.

He has worked within a wide range of communities developing methods and practices that take best advantage of art and aesthetics in the public interest.

Over the last three years they have been immersed on questions of cultural ecology in relationship to the ancient semi-natural Caledonia forests of Scotland; developing ideas about a 'critical forest art practice', that builds on previous work on post industrial landscapes and waterways.
