| Comment | Short answer to is there an Oyster card equivalent is no - the zone card exists but it needs renewed for high fixed prices, bought from a ticket office and requires a passport photo, and is basically just nowhere near as convenient a system. If you can make journeys by walking or cycling it’s not really worth getting one. A subway card is definitely worth having, as you can just top up as and when you want, but limited in where it’ll get you to. I use an app called bus times for getting around as well, it’s pretty useful for departure times from stops and does trains and subway as well. Basically having the transport divided up between multiple private companies is a fucking nightmare for convenience, but luckily Glasgow is compact enough to get around once you get your bearings. |
