Drivers are being warned that temporary traffic lights will be in place at a busy junction in Glasgow’s West End for six weeks.

Four-way signals will operate on Argyle Street at its junction with Radnor Street and Haugh Road near the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.

These will be in force from May 5 until June 19.

This is to allow for work to be carried out as part of the Connecting Yorkhill and Kelvingrove active travel project.

As part of the project, this junction will have its traffic lights upgraded and new pedestrian and cycle infrastructure installed.

From May 25 to June 19

  • All footway, cycleway, and traffic signal works on the northwest and northeast side of the junction ( the Radnor Street side).

Diversions will be in place during the closure of Radnor Street at its junction with Argyle Street only.
