Funding approved for £18m train station in Barrhead

The city deal funding was approved on Friday.

Transport Secretary Fiona Hyslop said the decision was “a great example” of new public transport being linked with a new housing development.

She said: “The new station will provide sustainable transport options, better connecting people to employment, education, leisure and business opportunities. We welcome this innovative plan for the delivery of a new station.”

The station will have two platforms connected by a footbridge with lifts, as well as waiting shelters, cycle storage and ticket machines.

A lease was previously agreed in July to allow Network Rail to take over council land on a 175-year deal to provide the parking area at the station.
