Description:
Langlands Path is the key pedestrian walkway linking Govan town centre with residential areas and key services, such as the library and health centre, in the west. Elderpark Housing Association completed very successful short term upgrade to improve the attractiveness and feeling of safety on the path. Major upgrade works are planned in 2011 as part of Central Govan action plan to create an appealing walking and cycle route that improves accessibility to and from the town centre.
Artist Kate Robinson has been working to create a timeline for Langlands Path which will celebrate Govan's extraordinary history. The project involves gathering stories from local people. Find out more about the public art project on Facebook.
Improvement works are being developed in consultation with the local community.
