Work to replace the LIDl superstore in Blantyre continues at a pace.
The existing store was recently demolished at the junction of Whistleberry Road and Glasgow Road and a new bigger and better store is being built.
Contractors ‘Forum Contracts’ have already completed substructure works, including foundations, drainage and floor slab. The new store will have a slightly different footprint with a larger frontage on to Glasgow Road and a more prominent entrance and signage. As well as being eco friendly, inside the store will have wider aisles and a dedicated bakery area. Improvements to the carpark along with the installation of EV chargers are also in plans.
All being to programme, the new store has a planned re-opening in January 2025. Have your say. Are YOU looking forward to the reopening?


Be good when it re-opens. Handy to drop into on way back to EK from the north.
