Infrastructure projects in Glasgow City Centre

The Squiggly Bridge at night

Broomielaw-Tradeston bridge

The Squiggly Bridge opened in 2009, providing an important predestrian and cycle link  between the growing IFSD and Tradeston.

Recent investment in infrastructure is supporting the growing numbers of commuters and visitors who will be attracted to the waterfront.

New bridges across the Clyde have been created to provide important connections. The Broomielaw-Tradeston Bridge is connecting the south of the river with the city centre. The massive M74 extension project created a new junction with the M8 to the south of the Kingston Bridge and has improved traffic flow and connections through the city.

Fastlink is an important project, providing a tramlike experience based on a high quality bus link. It will play a key role in linking the city centre with the new South Glasgow Hospital.

In addition, a series of river footpaths and cycleways are being created along the Clyde corridor.
