I think it's a bit hopeful that taxis and delivery drivers won't continue to stop in the middle of the road and illegally park there. A lot of the restaurants also put crates or cones out to block the space in front of their restaurant so the delivery drivers can park.
My only guess is they're hoping to route drivers round Charing Cross who want to go North and through Byres Road if they want to go south.
Will it work? Who knows. Glasgow's road infrastructure is already a shambles. Who cares if we add another bad one into the mix at this point.
Parking in the west end is kind of pointless though. It's shorter for me to drive and park up near Murano or Maryhill and walk down than it is to take public transport. |
