A busy stretch of road in Glasgow city centre will soon be closed to traffic for almost three weeks.

Starting from 8am on Monday, November 7 Gordon Street will be shut to all vehicles between Union Street and Mitchell Street.

The closure will allow for essential repair work at a carriageway subsidence. 

The road is scheduled to reopen to traffic at 6pm on Sunday, November 27.

For the duration of the work, and to accommodate the diversion route, vehicles will only be permitted to travel southbound on West Nile Street between St Vincent Street and Gordon Street as well as Mitchell Street.

The Union Street bus gate will also be suspended until repair work is completed.
