Campaigner­s want Subway extended out to Castlemilk

But SPT say costs are‘simply unaffordab­le’

-

“Being estimated at £ 2.3billion the cost to extend are simply unaffordab­le and Scottish Government backed SPT’s recommenda­tion to modernise the existing system.

“That programme has been underway for some time now and has seen the introducti­on of a new smart ticketing system, very significan­t improvemen­ts to our Subway stations, and the order for a fleet of new automated trains and associated signalling systems which will make the Glasgow Subway one of the most advanced metro systems in operation anywhere.”
