UPDATE: Both Subway circles have now reopened.

Both Subway circles in Glasgow have been suspended this afternoon.

Scottish Partnership for Transport (SPT) announced that it was aware of the issue at around 2.05pm on Thursday.

The travel operator notes that the suspensions on the Inner and Outer Circles are due to a defective train in the Govan area.

Engineers are currently working to resolve the issue as “quickly as they can”.
