Representatives of the freight transport industry have raised concerns over the uncertain fate of a Europa truckstop located to the south of Glasgow.
The site off the M74, which currently provides parking for 140 vehicles and a range of services for haulage drivers, has been purchased by Tesco, which intends to use the area as a site for a new superstore, according to reports.
The Freight Transport Association (FTA) and Road Haulage Association (RHA) have responded to the potential closure of what the FTA described as a “popular truckstop” by suggesting it may be a potential issue for many drivers in the area.
