Completion of the first opening road bridge at the River Clyde is a stage closer following construction of an environmentally-friendly water channel.
More than 60 people worked on the new open-air culvert which replaces an old outfall moved to make way for the new bridge.
Renfrewshire Council is leading delivery of this Glasgow City Region City Deal funded project which is improving transport connections at the waterfront with up to 1,400 jobs and an estimated £230 million in investment anticipated to follow.

"The new water channel is just one of a series of environmental enhancements resulting from these works alongside better town centre air quality and improved access to public paths and cycle routes, while protecting popular green spaces.” Communities on both sides of the Clyde are already benefiting, with jobs and training opportunities on site during construction and an estimated £3.5m supply chain boost to business so far.
