Tunnock’s want to use police office for storage
Tunnock’s acquired the building, which is located less than 200m from the factory, for just over £200,000 earlier this year and now wishes to use it as a storage facility.
The proposal has already received one objection from an Uddingston resident worried about implications on traffic.

“Old Glasgow Road is a very busy road for access to housing in the Bothwell Castle Estate and as well as to Uddingston Grammar School and the Kylepark area.
“During certain times, there are also a lot of pedestrians for the nursery at the church, for the school and the supermarket.”
However, Tunnock’s agent’s Nimmo & Partners LPP said in the planning application: “The building will be used for the storage of light equipment not currently in use at Tunnock’s factory.”
