Cumbernauld

Town Centre

North Lanarkshire's Total disregard for the people of the town. Addition of half empty retail shed (Antonine Centre) is a cynical attempt to exploit shoppers of Cumbernauld whilst providing no badly needed social facilities.

Iain Buchanan

Why do local authorities allow so many new retail developments, as if retail therapy is ever going to fix the social and environmental problems. I wonder how many pockets were lined when the planning for the Antonine Centre was rubber stamped!

Disgruntled

But don't forget that the group responsible for promotion of the centre have commissioned a 1/4 million pound statue to highlight the centre - it will show the centre off in the best light due to it being placed 2 miles away and hidden at the side of the "new" motorway that is dividing Cumbernauld in two!!

Complete disregard for the people of Cumbernauld by North Lanarkshire Council is disgusting. We want a decent town, with decent fascilities. It's a very depressing place to live.

Cumbernauld is a fantastic area, ok, much like everywhere else, a utopian town is a wonderful idea, but its a working progress and that means the people in it have to make it work. Too many negative comments about the town. It does not deserve another nomination again this year. The people that are condeming this are the people that make misery anywhere they go. If this becomes a nominee, then I will make sure it has a chance to defend itself from the few critiques out there. Cumby Critter. http://www.cumbernauldwhatsitcalled.co.uk
