Restoring the Monarchy! Trinity CC December update

I hope you had a great Christmas.  Here’s your December update from Trinity Community Council:

Our first meeting of 2019, on January 14th will address the tricky 
subject of traffic volumes in/around and through Trinity and beyond.  

Please do come along to listen to Cllr McInnes and bring your
questions.  We always do our best to represent the community’s opinions
but it is always better to have them expressed at first hand.

All feedback on any of this is, as ever, welcome.

Meantime, have a Happy Hogmanay!

Best wishes,

Bill Rodger
