First confirms changes to bus services while junction is closed for gas works

First Glasgow has announced short term changes to a number of services due to the road closure in Motherwell town centre.

There is currently no access to Hamilton Road from the cross to allow SGN to complete work to replace old metal gas pipes.

Work started today (Monday) and the gas distribution firm estimates it will be finished in three weeks, but the closures could potentially be in place until August 6.
