Popeyes' plan to open a Glasgow city centre restaurant has taken a step forward.

The American chicken chain announced in January that it's looking to expand into Sauchiehall Street.

In 2022, the company gained planning permission to take over the building under 108, currently occupied by Pound Shop.

Now, a further proposal has been submitted to the council, to put up signage for the eatery.

The bid is currently pending with the planning committee and a decision is expected by Friday, May 31.
