Glasgow Central Station to reopen another exit as demolition works continue
The upper Hope Street exit will reopen as an exit-only route while platforms 1–6 remain closed and demolition continues after a Union Street fire, Network Rail said.
- On Sunday, March 22, Network Rail will reopen the upper Hope Street exit at Glasgow Central as an exit-only route to provide passengers another safe way out.
- The fire began in a vape shop on Sunday March 8, leaving only the Union Corner building's facade standing; demolition started on Wednesday and will finish by the end of Friday.
- A temporary station layout routes people via a managed corridor from platforms seven to 10 to Hope Street using the emergency-vehicle entrance while platforms 1-6 remain closed.
- The safety cordon will remain in place as large vehicles on site limit access, while First Minister John Swinney announced up to £10 million to support recovery efforts.
- The station was mostly undamaged and gradual reopening continues with a staged reopening this weekend at Glasgow Central, but authorities say 'there's still vital work under way' and ask passengers to keep bearing with arrangements.
