North Glasgow's Stockingfield Bridge almost ready to open as construction finishes

Construction of a new bridge that will connect three North Glasgow communities for the first time in over two hundred years has finally been completed.

For the first time since the waterway's opening in 1790, Stockingfield Bridge will connect the communities of Maryhill, Gilshochill, and Ruchill together.

The bridge, which is a significant piece of national infrastructure, also serves as the final link in the canal towpath, offers a continuous active travel route along the whole length of the canal from Bowling on the Clyde to Edinburgh in the east via the Union Canal.
