When will the works take place?
Works will begin on Monday 18 May 2026 and will be completed by Friday 10 July 2026, with all restrictions lifted by 6.30pm.

The programme has been carefully planned to finish well in advance of Sanquhar Civic Day and the Riding of the Marches (15 August 2026) and to avoid conflict with anticipated Commonwealth Games traffic, beginning on 23 July 2026.

this forum is basically a links page and information page which I hope helps someone out there, it's open to everybody and if anyone wishes to modulate any parts of this please contact me and I will add you happily as it is only meant to help the community and nothing more. I don't want to put political or religious or any type of serious advertising on here as it's a waste of time for all of us and annoying So let's hope given time this will grow into a useful tool for locals and holidaymakers.
