A STIRLING MSP met with businesses and residents in Crianlaric­h last week to discuss changing the speed limit into the village to 40mph.

Bruce Crawford MSP spoke to businesses who have experience­d high speed traffic as they marge onto the road from their premises.

Speaking about the talks, Mr Crawford said: ‘It is clear from the conversati­ons that the desire for a 40mph speed buffer coming into the village extends beyond those who contacted me. Other businesses and residences in the area are impacted by cars coming into Crianlaric­h off a 60mph road.

‘There are a number of entrances/exits to and from premises on the 300-400 yard stretch before the 30mph zone begins and it is clear the current speed limit causes hazards to road users. I am pleased Transport Scotland is open to discussing this following my correspond­ence and I will be reaching out to Police Scotland to provide as much incident informatio­n as possible as we build the case for a speed buffer into Crianlaric­h.’
