By Councillor Webber - Shirley Jamieson School Crossing Patrol on Lanark Road Juniper Green

“Council

Recognises the commitment to the community of Juniper Green by Shirley Jamieson.

Shirley Jamieson has served the community of Juniper Green at the Lanark Road pedestrian crossing for over fifteen years as the School crossing patrol and is regarded as an unfaltering asset to our local community.

Shirley Jamieson efficiently, cheerfully, and faithfully, assists all members of the community, young and old, able-bodied, and disabled cross safely in all weathers.

Notes that this is a busy road that every resident must cross to access the village shops, services, access public transport and sustainable travel routes. 

Commends Shirley Jamieson for going above and beyond her duties as a School Crossing Patrol. For example, when she crosses with young people as they learn to walk to school independently or ensures people with dementia get to the right bus stop to get home.

Notes that despite driving twenty miles daily to get to this crossing point, Shirley Jamieson is known throughout the community of Juniper Green.

Calls on the Lord Provost to write to Shirley Jamieson, acknowledging her long service and extend the appreciation and regard the community has for her and recognising all she does for those living in the area.”
