Destinations	Jan 03, 2009

A new addition to the rail link to Glasgow Airport will begin construction in 2010, airport authorities announced today. <P></P><BR><P><BR>More than half a dozen companies are expected to tender for the GBP130 million project which will consist of a viaduct over the M8 at Paisley. The new link which will be known as the St James Spur, is one of four new bridges required for the additional route. </P><BR><P><BR>Airport authorities say the proposed link will be similar to those at Manchester, Heathrow and Stansted, with a direct link terminating at the airport. The proposal includes a new airport station to be built near the multi-storey car park from where a moving walkway will link to the main hub. </P><BR><P><BR><BR>Once open, four trains will run every hour between the city and the airport during peak hours. With just one stop at Paisley, each journey will take about 16 minutes. It is due for completion by early 2013, before the Commonwealth Games which are due to take place the following year. </P><BR><P></P>
