Compass have informed us they need to close access to the Millennium Hall for the first 2 weeks in April “to allow deep drainage and soakaway works to be completed in front of the building.” They’ve gone to great trouble to keep access open till now but this shut-down is unavoidable. If affected groups can manage to book space in the school instead, SCD will pay the difference. Tricia will put up a poster in the hall and ensure anyone who has a booking for this period is informed. Please spread the word.
The work is timed to follow on from the drainage and sewage work previously announced. Here’s a reminder of those road works in March :
(1) From the hall to Old Mill Rd junction : Traffic lights will be installed and vehicles will be restricted to a single lane. Beginning 18th March, scheduled for 3 weeks.
(2) From top of Shop Brae to water treatment plant : Road closure, traffic detoured via Raigbeg. Beginning 18th March, scheduled for 2 weeks.
Pedestrian access down shop brae will be maintained during this period, and in response to fears of a wine bottle mountain, Compass will allow access to the bottle bank from the lower side.
We apologise for the inevitable inconvenience.
