TRNSMT road closures around Glasgow as three-day festival opens today

A number of Glasgow’s roads will be closed off to drivers for the duration of TRNSMT Festival.

Around 50,000 revellers are expected to descend on Glasgow Green for the three-day music festival from today.

The star-studded line up will include the likes of Paolo Nutini, The Strokes, Lewis Capaldi, Nile Rodgers & Chic, Self Esteem, Nina Nesbitt and Wolf Alice.

Due to the size and scale of the event, Glasgow City Council has announced a string of road closures and restrictions that will affect drivers around the city over the next three days.
