Not the biggest of news but prior to #ClydeMetro a direct non-stop link between #GlasgowCentral & #Airport was considered but abandoned due to how it’d affect existing #train services - just clarification from the #councils that the link will be “incorporated into the wider “Clyde #Metro project”! #scotpol #scotland #politics #urbanism #transport #subway

Clyde Metro will not include direct link between Glasgow Airport and Central Station

The money was previously set aside from the Glasgow Airport Access project which was scrapped in 2018 because of “feasibility reasons”.

Just funky to experience twice in a day, amazing that any wee issue grinds the Subway’s tiny route to a halt. Every day there are updates on socials apologising for trains breaking down & lines not running. #Clydemetro where u @?
