The works are part of the Cowgate public realm project which is due to be completed before summer 2017.
The scheme will remove street clutter, narrow carriageways, widen footways, reduce traffic speeds below 20mph, and install raised tables and courtesy crossings in the Cowgate area.
New controlled crossings and traffic lights will be installed in Catherine Street and Kerr Street.
East Dunbartonshire Council Leader Rhondda Geekie said: "Work to bring ambitious plans for Kirkintilloch to fruition is now fully underway.
"The improved road and pavements between Townhead Bridge and Catherine Street are impressive and bode well for the remainder of the rolling programme."
