Paisley Road West

What's happening

We are carrying out urgent sewer repair works, alongside separate emergency water network works, in the Ibrox area of Glasgow.

Urgent sewer repair works are taking place at the junction of Paisley Road West and Govan Road, near Ibrox. These works are required to protect the local wastewater network and prevent further issues.

At the same time, separate emergency works are required on the water network in the surrounding area. These will be managed alongside the sewer repairs to help minimise disruption wherever possible.

The sewer repair works are scheduled to begin on Monday 9 February and are expected to be completed by 1 March.

Emergency repairs on the water main, also on Paisley Road West at the junction of Dumbreck Road and Carillon Road are expected to last between four and eight weeks. 

To allow the works to be carried out safely, traffic management will be in place, including a lane closure and restrictions, temporary traffic signals and changes to pedestrian routes around the site.

Paisley Road West is closed to all traffic on the west bound lane before the petrol station and Dumbreck Road and Kirkwood Street. Vehicle access to Paisley Road West via Beech Avenue and New Gower Street will remain. We ask road users to follow diversions in place.

Due to the location near Ibrox Stadium, additional planning has been put in place for matchdays. Traffic management arrangements will be actively managed, with enhanced on-site coordination and parking enforcement to help manage traffic flow and pedestrian safety.

Delays are likely, particularly on matchdays. Drivers and pedestrians are advised to follow on-site signage, plan journeys in advance and allow extra time for travel.

Keeping you informed

We’ll continue to update this page as the works progress and as further details on the emergency water works are confirmed.
