What route does the rail link take?
The completed rail link will run from the west – either Helensburgh or Milngavie, depending on the train services – through Glasgow Queen Street to Edinburgh Waverley in the east. Detailed in the Airdrie-Bathgate Railway and Linked Improvements Act are two additional stations at Caldercruix and Armadale. The Act also includes the relocation of Bathgate and Drumgelloch stations as well as the upgrade of Airdrie, Uphall Station and Livingston North stations. Separately, West Lothian Council is taking forward plans for an additional station at Blackridge. To view the route maps please visit The Rail Link page.
