The demolition of the St Enoch’s Centre has now been approved under the council’s redevelopment plans which will see it replaced with shops, offices, restaurants and homes. <br /><br />The demolition will be carried out in phases over the next 15 to 20 years, while key buildings will be retained. <br /><br />The gradual construction will mean businesses can operate during the works. <br /><br />Next up, rail services in the city did face disruption after a person was struck by a train. <br /><br />Scotrail announced the incident had occurred on the line between Port Glasgow and Wemyss Bay on 30 May, and a spokesperson said they were working closely with the emergency services. <br /><br />And in other news, Unite the union is calling on the council to halt parking charges at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary as the low emission zone comes into force. <br /><br />As the hospital sits partially on the border for LEZ, those who cannot find a space in the multi-storey car park will be forced to exit into the restricted area and could be subject to fines if their car is non-compliant.<br /><br />A spokesperson for the union said this was unfair to staff and patients.
