AFAIK it's a long term issue down to the natural life-span of the quaysides along the Clyde, and them being worn down over decades with no major restructuring works done.

A lot of money has been set aside in the City Deal fund for "Quayside / Wharf" repairs though. The funding programme was announced about ~2ish years ago, and I read recently that the first works should be underway early next year. At least, that's the case downstream of the weir. I'm not too sure about upstream, round Glasgow Green area.

The stretch near Tradeston (known as Windmillcroft quay, between the squiggly bridge and Springfield Quay) will be [getting a cycle path installed as part of the quayside rebuild](https://www.scottishconstructionnow.com/article/glasgow-accepts-funding-contribution-for-windmillcroft-quay-project). That particular stretch has a massive hole in it, so it makes sense that one will be prioritised first. But as I understand it other quays have money allocated to them as well.
