Yesterday, Finlay performed at the celebration event marking the completion of the Cowcaddens Road and Dobbie's Loan Avenues project.

Hosted here at the NPC, the event brought together local residents, cyclists and visitors to explore the newly transformed streetscape, improved walking and cycling routes, and new green spaces in the heart of the city.

It was great to be part of a day celebrating investment in Glasgow's communities and active travel network!

Today, Dundasvale Community Council came along to the National Piping Centre to celebrate the finalised Cowcaddens Road and Dobbies Loan Avenues! 🙌

Obviously, there had to be a bit of piping involved… 👀
