went out on Friday morning to have a wee look at George square, North Hanover street, Cowcaddens road and St Georges road then George V bridge. mostly chilled cycle with drone shots of the progress of these projects.
Nice update, thanks for the video. Hopefully they go about putting more secure cycle parking in place as well. It's the main thing that puts me off taking my bike into the city centre.
Watching your videos from Birmingham, which seems to keep falling farther and farther behind on mobility design, I'm astonished at just how much Glasgow is getting done. Keep going!
Love all your updates on what’s happening in and around Glasgow with the cycling routes , informative and great research done to produce these videos . Well Done 👏
Thank you. I feel your pain as it was so frustrating here for so many years. Would say that Glasgow is about 6-7 years away from having some sort of basic network in place. The only barrier in place now is people not wanting to loose a parking space right in front of their house.
Enjoyed that, Glasgow is a city I easily get lost in. I’ve wondered what it would be like to explore by bike but wouldn’t know where to start. Good to see the improvements happening. Dundee is awful for bike infrastructure except for mostly the river front.
This has cheered me up on a rainy bank holiday monday. So much to enjoy and look forward to here. I agree, West Prince's St between St George's Rd and Park Rd is a nice quiet alternative to Great Western Rd. I was very disappointed when the indefinite postponement of Woodlands Rd was announced.
Nice wee video thank you, Glasgow City Council have chopped down the beautiful old trees at Dundasvale at Cowcaddens for what reason l don’t know, absolutely shocking, so much for their ‘Avenues’ project which involves planting trees, the area looks soulless now, it was like a small oasis in the heart of the city, so sad to see, terrible.
A great video it is good to see the cycling infrastructure progressing. We are getting more routes to and from the city centre but not so many through the city centre. I've been trying to work out the best way of getting from Clyde Street/Stockwell Street area up to the new Sighthill footbridge. There doesn't seen to be a sensible direct route, do you have any recommendations?
These videos are the antidote to car-brained facebook whining, I remember visiting my aunts house in Sherwood park Alberta, Canada, and thinking car dependent suburbia was the antithesis of how I wanted to live, and when I lived in Shawlands 2005-2019 it was great taking the bike to Queen’s Park but hell getting there.

great to see new cycling infrastructure coming up. Hopefully we get much more in many cities

I'm looking for a map of all these new connected routes – trying to see if I can use any of them on my commute!

the deliveroo express coming along nicely…
Hi GC, Have you a recommendation for any particular GPS cycling app – mainly Glasgow & Clyde Coast.
