There will be no vehicle access or parking allowed during these times. Footways will remain open so pedestrian access will be maintained.

Alternative routes – by way of Southbank Drive, Townhead, Cowgate, Catherine Street, the A806 New Lairdsland Road, Parliament Road, the B757 Lenzie Road, Donaldson Street and Marina Way – will be signposted.

We recognise that these essential improvement works may cause some inconvenience for colleagues working in nearby offices and facilities. Thanks in advance for your assistance and patience.

Thank you,
