The Glasgow 2018 European Championships will be held at venues across Scotland from Thursday 2 August until Sunday 12 August.  This will result in changes for access to Glasgow Queen Street.

Glasgow City Council is closing roads across Glasgow to accommodate the 2018 European Championships.

While ScotRail train services will be running as normal, there will be temporary changes to the 398 bus service that runs between Glasgow Central, Glasgow Queen Street, and Glasgow Buchanan Bus Station.

These changes will be in place on Wednesday 1 August, Sunday 5 August, Wednesday 8 August, Friday 10 August, and Sunday 12 August.

To help your journey run smoothly, we are asking anyone who needs assistance and wishes to travel on the bus between Glasgow Central & Glasgow Queen Street on the affected dates to consider booking assistance in advance. You can do this via https://www.scotrail.co.uk/plan-your-journey/accessible-travel

Passengers who do not require assistance should make the short walk to the temporary bus stop or walk between the two stations instead.

Details of changes:

Due to road closures on the following dates, the 398 bus service will run via a different route.

Wednesday 1 August

If you’re wanting to go between Glasgow Queen Street and Glasgow Central, the 398 can be accessed from a designated stop outside the ‘Missoula’ restaurant on Renfield Street.

Wednesday 8 August & Friday 10 August

If you’re wanting to go between Glasgow Queen Street and Glasgow Central, the 398 can be accessed from a designated stop outside the ‘Wagamamas’ restaurant on West George Street.

During these days, passengers with assistance travelling to/from Glasgow Queen Street by taxi should use the temporary disabled pick-up/drop-off rank on West George Street.

Station staff will be on-hand at Glasgow Queen Street to walk passengers who need assistance to the bus pick-up point and taxi rank.

No changes have been made to the pick up/drop off point at Glasgow Central on these dates.

Sunday 5 August & Sunday 12 August

Due to extensive road closures across Glasgow, the 398 bus service cannot run at all on these days.
