• Lord Provost John Johnston of Glasgow has vigorously denied any suggestion that Greater Glasgow Transportation Study reports had been buried.
After a meeting of the GGTS steering committee last week he said that an evaluation memorandum and a supplementary appraisal by planning staff were being circulated among constituent bodies as a preparation for decisions being taken.
The steering committee had decided to continue as a liaison committee and had agreed to produce 10,000 copies of a popular version of the study reports for distribution to about 40 bodies.
He said the process of consultation must continue and there was a nucleus of a transportation unit in the planning officer's department. "We have drawn up a programme of immediate follow-up action for the consideration of the various constituent bodies," he went on.
"The activities of the steering committee must be taken in conjunction with the negotiations that are going on between the Scottish Bus Group and Glasgow Corporation and also the fact that the Transport Bill before the Commons may be on the Statute Book before the end of the year."
The final report of the transportation study, which took four years to complete and cost £365,000. was published in April.
