We started 2024 on the Killearn Active Travel Path Project by welcoming some new faces to the working group. They will be helping progress both this and the Killearn to Balfron Active Path. We’d like to thank Kenneth Alexander who is retiring from the Killearn to Balfron project, for all his hard work.
What is an active path? A path that provides the ability for people to walk, cycle or wheel (mobility scooters, prams, etc.) from A to B.
Both the Killearn Active Travel Path project and the Killearn to Balfron Active Path project are at Sustrans stages 0-2. We will continue to work with Sustrans on meeting their deliverables, and we hope to hold a further consultation with the village. Both projects will be coming to the end of stages 0-2 this year, and we would like to be able to take them to the next stage.
Last year, an advisory meeting of local businesses and groups was held and further meetings will take place this year. The Killearn Active Travel event was held in September.
Community feedback is always important. Let us know If you have any comments on the project or would like to get involved.
