I'm with you 100% on this by the way. The continual delays to the SCW and Avenues have been shocking.

Spaces for People stuff was quite disappointing and mostly low hanging fruit (eg. Closing off Kelvin Way). Many more things were promised and not delivered (a cycle route along the full length of Sauchiehall Street to Kelvingrove for one).

I'm only praising the fact that behind these disappointments, there is an apparent active travel strategy which simply just wasn't there before. There's now a long list of Avenues and City Ways to be delivered. Disappointingly it appears this may take up to 10 years to be completed, but the pipeline has been established, and it will definitely be happening, unlike many previous infrastructure projects which never came to anything.

Speaking of which, the Strathclyde Tram, and several other light rail lines may soon get the go ahead under the current administration. Again, I'm all for criticising the pace of change, but I'm pleased that there *has been* a change on these fronts.
