Consultation Extra: Gordon Street & Central Station entrance

Gordon St, Glasgow with Central Station canopy and sign saying "Outgoing vehicles only"

Coming back after summer holidays, for some of us, may involve leaving Glasgow Central station onto Gordon St. The scene you’re met with can vary from ‘hustle and bustle’ to a full-on three ring circus of buses, taxis, bikes, people and luggage coming from all angles.
