Network Rail has announced that a full site assessment has now been completed at Glasgow Central.
Low-level services have resumed today; however, due to the instability of the building façade on Gordon Street, high-level services will be suspended for the rest of the week.
Network Rail is waiting for the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service and the Glasgow City Council to finish their work to determine the safety of the site.
Once this is done, Network Rail can complete work to find out if there is any damage to the station.
“We are grateful to Scottish Fire and Rescue teams who have been working tirelessly to contain the fire on the Union Corner site.
“I am pleased to advise passengers that we will be able to open Glasgow Central Low Level station from tomorrow morning (Wednesday).
“Unfortunately, further work is required to ensure the high level station is safe for trains to operate. Our priority is to make sure that we can reopen Glasgow Central as soon as it is safe to do so and we will continue to work with emergency services, the local council and our train operators to restore services.
We want to reassure passengers that we are doing everything we can to open the high level station, but we must enable the emergency services and Glasgow City Council to complete their critical work to secure the Union Corner site and make it safe
Route Director Ross Moran
