A spokesperson said: "The road closure will enable us to carry out pipe installation work as part of the Glasgow Resilience Project, which involves the installation of seven miles of new pipes to connect

the Glasgow area’s water network and the system in Ayrshire.

"This will increase resilience and protect supplies for about one million customers.”

The new water main is being installed in the Ibrox, Mosspark, Pollok, Priesthill, Nitshill and Parkhouse areas, and is expected to be completed in 2023.
