Worth someone saying people shouldn't get carried away, as OP isn't sharing something which isn't already publicly available info.

Transport Scotland included the Clyde Metro amongst several other projects in its list of national-level transport infrastructure projects for the next decade or more, earlier this year.

This concept map OP shares is a slightly older one, released in the first draft of that shortlisting and updated slightly in 2021. The more up to date concept map from 2022 is available here: https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/26965. Superficially the map looks a little different but it's more or less the same in terms of identifying potential routes.

Unless OP knows otherwise, the latest is simply that it has tacit support from national government, which is definitely a win. Glasgow City Council is leading on creating a full business case for the overall project, which is a necessary step before further funding is released. This business case will likely outline which routes are deemed 'priority' routes to be delivered, and slightly more detail on what form they may take.

This will all be quite a slow process, but we are at the beginning of something which could be quite revolutionary for the city.
