Last chance to respond to Transport Scotland's consultation on the future of the M8 Woodside Viaducts! 🛣️ Rather than waste £500m rebuilding this motorway, we could remove it & invest in sustainable transport connections instead 🚶🚴🌳 🚍 Find out more: RemovetheM8.org.uk Deadline: 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝟮𝟱 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲

last day for this is tomorrow, for anyone wanting to grasp at the possibility of not cooking this poisonous abomination in for another sixty years.

Ooooh go on, you know you want to bully Transport Scotland into pulling down part of the M8. You do! Fixing or replacing the viaducts will commit us to having a motorway carving up Glasgow until we all die and long after, probably. Strike the first blow, now, while it’s weak!!!

📢 Today at 1pm at Hillhead Subway Station Come and support Rae and the Access2Transport campaign, putting pressure on SPT to make our public transport network fully-accessible to all! 🚶🧑‍🦽🚇🚍🚉 Read more 👇 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Follow at 👉 instagram.com/access2transport

What an opportunity to make up for past mistakes. Anyone interested in a better future for the city should respond to this because those against definitely will.

Read why we're backing the campaign to remove the crumbling sections of Glasgow's M8 👇 archive.is/xFSHU We need Transport Scotland to invest in delivering a world-class public transport network instead 🚇 Take action here: removethem8.org.uk Deadline: 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝟮𝟱 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲

The consultation is actually quite short so recommend responding! The M8 is a blight on Glasgow City Centre and scaremongering about short term effects of closing a stretch of motorway will mean very little in the long term when the benefits of repairing the wound on our city's fabric take root.

£3.25 and it's impossible to transfer with your ticket yes i will moan and moan about public transport in glasgow mostly because of the depressing lack of imagination it shows in the scottish public sphere, that existing infrastructure assets should be so squandered

It's past time we put this failed deregulation experiment to bed. It hasn't improved services or driven down fares. We're held to ransom and forced to pay these exorbitant fares. SPT are blazing a trail, ScotGov needs to recognise this is vital and support them in the budget next week.

Today First Glasgow put single fares up to a whopping £3.25, leaving us with some of the most expensive buses in the UK 💸 How can ScotGov allow this blatantly unfair situation to persist? 😤 𝗪𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 by supporting SPT’s plans to take our buses back into public control 💷
