Scottish WaterA busy road in Glasgow city centre has been closed for four weeks.
Gordon Street between Renfield Street and West Nile Street will be closed to all vehicles while Scottish Water carries out urgent sewer repair work.
The work is expected to take around four weeks to complete, depending on ground conditions and the condition of the sewer once further excavation is under way.
The bus gate on Union Street will also be suspended.
A Scottish Water spokesperson said: “This emergency work is essential to repair a defective sewer connection and protect nearby properties from internal flooding.
“We understand that closing a busy city centre street will cause disruption and we will do all we can to complete the repair safely and as quickly as possible.
“We will remain in contact with affected businesses throughout and we thank everyone for their patience and understanding while this urgent work is carried out.”
Local businesses remain open as usual, with pedestrian access being maintained at all times.
