Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT) is working on a new direct rail link between Glasgow Central station and Glasgow International Airport.
In 2003 8.2 million people used Glasgow Airport with 95% of people travelling to the airport by road. BAA, the airport operator, forecasts that patronage at Glasgow Airport could grow to 24 million by 2030.
Already the M8 is congested and an alternative fast direct route is needed between Glasgow city centre and the airport if the city and wider region is to remain competitive and attractive.
The airport rail link has a positive economic case with the benefits outweighing the costs and will create jobs in the area, support the growth of the airport and help reduce congestion on the M8.
