    A cycle lane built as part of the £6m regeneration project to rejuvenate Greenock town centre and encourage active travel is facing calls to be scrapped just over a year after it was completed.

    Almost 1,000 people have signed a petition against the two-way lane on West Blackhall Street, with some local businesses claiming the route has "decimated" trade.

    Meanwhile, cyclists have told BBC Scotland the lane is frequently blocked by parked cars and they have faced hostility from motorists.

    Inverclyde Council has acknowledged there have been "teething troubles" and said a review is underway.

    Problem not really ‘cycle lane’ but removing parking spaces.
