Still no path connection from the Bredisholm Road M73 bridge to Calderbank Road, and no evidence one is going to be provided. A detour via the unsealed path next to the railway line is thus necessary.
A barrier across the motorway path, with the inevitable evidence of people going around it via the grass. Several other sets of barriers have gone in elsewhere on this path.
The path from Viewfield Road to the M8/A8 footbridge. The footbridge has a double-back ramp when it could have come straight down in this direction, avoiding wasting the time of people walking and cycling.
No path connection between the road crossing and the entrance to Hogganfield Park. Have to bump kerb and cross grass. This is a signed walking and cycling route, the Seven Lochs Trail.

A newly installed dropped kerb at the east end of Henderson Street, but the corresponding dropped kerb in Napiershall Street has an occupied marked parking bay across it.
In an almost empty street (see #183811), one of the few vehicles parked is blocking the dropped kerb for Garriochmill Way. A build-out is required, as well as removing the parking bay markings.
