Guns N' Roses fans and TRNSMT revellers are being warned of travel chaos ahead of much-anticipated gigs at Glasgow Green this week. The American band is due to play in the city centre park on Tuesday night ahead of the major Scottish festival's return - but limited timetables may make it hard for those trying to get home after gigs.
ScotRail has urged fans to consider their travel options as there will be limited trains leaving Glasgow City Center after 11pm all week. They have also advised no trains will run after TRNSMT ends on Sunday night.
The train operator warned space on the last services may be limited and has asked revellers to plan ahead and consider what alternative modes of transport are available. Those travelling from north and south west Scotland may also face replacement bus services due to planned engineering works on rail lines between Inverness and Aberdeen, and between Dumfries and Kilmarnock on Friday and Saturday.
Phil Campbell, ScotRail Head of Customer Operations, said: “We have another busy week of live music in Glasgow with Guns N’ Roses and then TRNSMT at Glasgow Green, and we’re urging customers travelling to the events to plan ahead, to check their entire journey, and to know their travel options.
“Due to the temporary timetable currently in place, there will be a very limited number of trains departing the city centre after Guns N’ Roses on Tuesday night, and on the Friday and Saturday of TRNSMT.
“Customers going to TRNSMT on Sunday should be aware that there will be no trains after the event, so please check your entire journey and know what alternative transport is available.”
Warnings have also been issued for motorists who may make their way into the city centre on Tuesday. Traffic Scotland tweeted: "Heading to see Guns N Roses at Glasgow Green tomorrow?
"Traffic will be busier than normal on the #M8, #M74, #M77 & #M80. Don't get caught in traffic - consider active ways of travel!"
