The development of local transport initiatives, including proposals to improve connections between different modes of public transport, is a matter for the relevant local authority, or in this case, the Strathclyde Passenger Transport Executive. However, the Scottish Executive already contributes to the funding of a bus link between Glasgow Queen Street and Glasgow Central railway stations.In addition, the Central Scotland Transport Corridor Studies are looking at ways to address, in the longer term, the problems of moving along the three transport corridors
- A8, A80 and M74. This includes how best to facilitate public transport journeys across central Glasgow.
