A report updating councillors states: “The City Network…describes the concept of a dense active travel network to be delivered over the next ten years.

“Where necessary, space for the City Network will be reallocated from unsustainable transport modes, whilst taking a balanced approach to work with improving public transport and footways.

“Glasgow City Council have clear aspirations that the City Network will be well lit and routed through busier areas providing higher levels of passive supervision, so people feel as safe as possible using it at night and that it is inclusive of all populations.”
