Major bridge works on are set to cause disruption on a busy section of Scotland's busiest motorway over the next two weekends.
The M8 will be closed in both directions in Glasgow between Junction 19 (Anderston) and Junction 24 (Helen Street).
The first closure will run from 18:00 on Saturday until 13:00 on Sunday, affecting the road between Junctions 22 and 24. Diversions will be in place.
Drivers will be diverted off the motorway and routed through Glasgow's south side using local roads including Paisley Road West, Paisley Road, Helen Street and Dumbreck Road, before re-joining the M8 or M77.
The engineering company Amey, which will be carrying out the work on behalf of Transport Scotland, said road users are "strongly advised to avoid the area" during the closures.
A second and larger operation will take place next weekend, when all 16 lanes of the M8 through the affected area will be closed. Parts of the M77 and M74 will also be affected.
On Wednesday, Glasgow's SEC campus, which includes the OVO Hydro arena, released a statement warning people travelling to the venue on the weekends of 7 November and 14 November to expect disruption and delays.
The Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship takes place at the Hydro on Saturday evening, with British singer Beabadoobee performing at the venue on Saturday 14 November.
Rangers fans should avoid the road as they make their way to Paisley to face St Mirren at 20:00 on Saturday. While Celtic play at home in Glasgow on Sunday at 16:00.
The city's Subway is also subject to weekend closures starting next weekend.
Similar works carried out in 2024 led to delays of up to an hour, and officials have warned that similar disruption is possible if large numbers of vehicles continue to use diversion routes.
Emergency vehicles will not be able to pass through the closure area.
The work relies on large cranes and can only go ahead in suitable weather conditions.
If strong winds or heavy rain make it unsafe, the operation could be postponed until a contingency weekend on 21 and 22 November.
After the bridges are put back in place, further work will be carried out before they reopen by the end of February.
The improvements include new surfaces, better drainage and higher safety barriers for cyclists.
