BUS passengers travelling to the city centre and East End face delays and diversions this weekend because of the Pedal for Scotland event.
More than 7000 people will take part in a bike ride from Glasgow Green to Edinburgh on Sunday.
A number of First Glasgow services will have to follow diversions on journeys travelling to and from the city centre and the east end.
Diversions will be in place from 5am until 1pm due to the closure of a number of roads being used for the event.
Passengers are being advised to allow additional time for their journey.
John Cahill, business director (city) of First Glasgow, said: “Our services running to and from the east of Glasgow and the city centre will have to operate via diversions to accommodate Scotland’s biggest cycling event this coming Sunday.
“We are doing everything we can to keep any inconvenience to a minimum and advising customers in advance while recommending they allow additional time when planning their journeys.”
