THE Cowdenbeath High Street story continues and progress is being made.

And the idea that the business premises with shutters should have them specially painted is certainly a novel one.

A suggestion that the type of business or service provide be reflected in the image maybe would work well.

It could be that in the evening these illustrations would greatly enhance the central part of High Street.

There are people determined to continue the improvements in High Street.

Remarkably it is 25 years since the first work started on High Street improvements in Cowdenbeath as our look back column on page 6 shows.

In that time a lot has been achieved but more needs to be done without doubt and the plans for the Green Square will go a long way to achieving this.

Make no mistake if there is funding available to make the painting of shutters happen the business community should embrace it and get the work done.

It could be a very interesting element in the creation of a new High Street and as there is cash in place to make things happen it would be disappointing if some members of the business community did not take advantage of it.
