Specialist divers on site at Gleniffer Braes as cars are prepared for removal

Specialist divers are now on the scene at a Paisley reservoir ahead of a special operation to remove dumped cars from the water later this week.

Scottish Water has been working in partnership with Renfrewshire Council, Police Scotland and the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA) to carry out the "delicate" and "complex" task of removing nine rotting and rusty cars from Gleniffer Braes.

Acting on calls from the local community for the vehicles to be removed, Scottish Water has enlisted help from contractors George Leslie Ltd to ensure the environment and the removal team are kept safe during the course of the operation.
