These broken bollards have been reported multiple times. We have now been told:
Following an inspection of the area by our officer, it has been confirmed that four stainless steel bollards are missing on Beith Street at the junction with Meadow Road, near the underpass. Replacement bollards have been ordered, with an anticipated lead time of approximately 6 weeks. Once they are received, our team will proceed with their reinstatement. In order to for the area to be made safe an instruction has been created to remove the current damaged bollards to eradicate a trip hazard.
We reported the sinkhole on the footpath in Maule Drive. Someone then made a botched repair. GCC say they have no record of anyone attending but have now told us it will be repaired by the first week of March.
This street light on Dumbarton Road has been out for some time. It has been reported. The latest is that the cause is a cable fault and will be repaired soon.
Recently there has been a lot of traffic management materials left across the area. With the help of our elected representatives we got it cleared away.
Thornwood Community Council would like to give a shout out to Glasgow City Council’s Parks and Green Space Team for their outstanding work in revitalising an area of long-neglected land at the bottom of Broomhill Drive. We are seeking ways to develop this area further.
We have had some success getting Virgin Media to either repair or replace their broken cable boxes. Six, so far. These before and after pictures are from Kildonnan Drive and Exeter Drive.
If you want to report a broken Virgin Media box you can do so here (registration required).
White lines have been appearing on corners around Thornwood. Since last January it has been an offence to parked at dropped kerbs and cars are being ticketed. Most dropped kerbs in Thornwood are at the corners. We asked for markings to make things clearer for drivers.
This sinkhole has been cordoned off for weeks. Nothing seems to be getting done. We've reported it and we have our elected representatives chasing things.
UPDATE DEC: Now sorted
We reported this road sign and the Glasgow roads team cleaned it. Thanks GCC we appreciate it.
We reported the graffiti on the bin and GCC's graffiti team removed it. If only we could do something about the vape stickers.
Thornwood Community Green is now a registered charity.
