Glasgow Subway under fresh pressure after both circles suspended as access campaign grows
Strathclyde Partnership for Transport faced fresh heat Thursday, with disability advocates again slamming the lack of accessibility across Glasgow’s Subway. Then, both loops on the network went down for a spell in the afternoon—no details on the cause. This is notable given SPT’s broad Subway overhaul: the new trains now run every route, platform screen doors are going in, and driverless trains are next on the list. But across the 15 Subway stations, which SPT says see 13 million riders a year, just Govan and St Enoch have elevators so far.
