The issue of parking, or lack of it, around Hairmyres station in East Kilbride is long-standing. I dealt with it when I was a councillor for the area and nothing has really changed since.
South Lanarkshire Council has published a series of reports recently – that’s all they are – outlining proposals to ease things. There is no timescale and there appear to be no firm commitments for action but I thought I would shared them anyway.
Here is a link to a report on the park and ride strategy
And this is one to the so-called action plan. I am trying to find out the timescales involved.
There is to be a consultation on introducing a residents’ parking zone near the station. I will inform residents when that is published.
