The lane, which is located between Valeview Terrace and Prospecthill Road will be transformed after the locals were awarded a £4k grant from the council.
Resurfacing work has now been completed on the lane, after it was levelled and slabbed, thanks to funding from the Langside & Linn Area Committee.
Residents in the 34 properties which border the lane also contributed £30 each towards the cost of the work.
Over the years, the lane has been the scene for antisocial behaviour, and was in such a bad condition that it created access problems for council refuse collection vehicles.

Previously, the residents' association received a grant almost £2k from the area committee to erect gates at both ends of the lane, putting an end to the antisocial behaviour, but the surface of the road remained an issue.
Gerry Mullen, Chair of the residents' association, said: "The grant to resurface the lane was the icing on the cake. The lane was muddy, uneven and causing real problems for the bin lorries. Hampden is a Commonwealth Games venue and we're keen that visitors coming to the area see it in its best light.
"We're delighted with the results. It looks so much better and is now fit for purpose."
Langside Councillor, Archie Graham, Executive Member for the Commonwealth Games at Glasgow City Council, said: "It's great to see what the residents have done with assistance from the council. They have really been the driving force behind getting this completed and the work is a huge improvement for the area.
"It's great to see residents taking pride in their local environment and working to enhance it for the good of everyone concerned. This is a prime example of how we are already seeing legacy from the Games long before they actually take place."
In addition to the work, the residents' association also created a garden area to commemorate the Battle of Langside.
