North Lanarkshire Council is looking to hear from the public regarding the future of Kilsyth town centre.

A number of drop-in sessions will be held in the town from Monday 10 June to Saturday 15 June for residents, visitors and businesses to give their views on how the town centre can be improved.

The sessions are the latest stage in the council's consultation to help shape the development of a Town Centre Framework and Action Plan.

Councillor James Coyle, Convener of the Planning and Transportation Committee said: "We have received some useful feedback from local people in the first stage of our consultation, but we want to hear from as many people as possible with an interest in Kilsyth.

"It's vital for the future of our town centres that we hear from the people who live, work and hop there.

"We want to know what people like about the town centre and what they don't, what are its advantages and disadvantages, what can be improved and how they would like to see Kilsyth in 10 years time."

The consultation will also include views on new Action Plans for the Kelvin Valley and the Antonine Wall World Heritage Site.

The new Framework and Action Plan will help guide the town centre's development and management over the next five to 10 years. They will address the wide range of issues, including the design quality of the town centre and its public spaces, accessibility and circulation in and around the area, development and diversification opportunities, as well as management, business support, marketing and promotion.
