Minutes:

Kevin McIntosh provided the Group with the following verbal update:

 

·         Queens Hall works are ongoing with temporary new road layout in place.

·         B8000 sea wall repair works ongoing and there may be short periods of lengthy delays

·         B836 – proposed works to install fibre for the Clachaig area will start after the 18th Jan 2018.

 

 

George Fiddes responded that one sign now working at Strone Point while the other is currently being repaired and temporary signage is in place. He agreed to provide an update to group on completion.

 

 

Douglas Blades informed the Group that he had received a request to change the bus time for the late bus that travels from Glen Finart to Toward. This change will facilitate the bus meeting the ferry when Argyll Ferries are undergoing refit works.  Cathie Morrison felt that this makes sense, didn’t think there would be any issues but agreed to raise this with South Cowal Community council.

 

Fulton McInnes asked if car parks would be free over the festive period. Councillor Forrest responded this was an ongoing debate and this is being actively pursued by local councillors.

Minutes:

Councillor Good advised the Group that he had had a number of complaints for the lack of bus stops in Toward and has been asked if the 482 and 483 bus services can be extended to pass through the town.  He was also asked if a dial-a-bus service could be put on between Innellan and Toward.  Douglas Blades agreed to discuss this with Councillor Good.

 

Iain MacInnes asked if there is a policy in place for Anti-Social behaviour on buses. Councillor Good confirmed there was a policy which involved drivers ordering disruptive passengers off the bus.

 

Iain MacInes asked if the backlog of TROs would be going through together or separately.  Stuart Watson confirmed that it depends on each individual TRO. He said that the Council was recruiting a temporary member of staff to assist in the processing of the backlog of TROs.
