LED lights have been installed in the famous Glasgow bridge to enhance the Clyde and Tradeston area.

The regeneration of the Tradeston Bridge  has been funded as part of Glasgow City Council’s £115m investment and the ‘Clyde Waterfront and West End Innovation Quarter’ programme. The enhanced lighting has been added to the famous bridge, in hopes to attract more jobs, tourists and help boost the city’s regional economic growth. 

For the regeneration projects at Tradeston and Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow city council chose Signify (Formerly Philips Lighting) as the lighting solutions provider.

CEO of Signify Stephan Rouatt, said: “The newly illuminated bridge will help with the regeneration of the Tradeston area, which will encourage footfall, making it more attractive, bringing in more tourists and locals to the area, and hopefully, boosting the local economy.”

He added: “ You can install a lot of different LED light scenes to the area, and tie it with different events like fireworks.”
