M77 to be bus park as roads are closed for the Pope’s visit

Roads will be closed and trains cancelled as tens of thousands of pilgrims pour into Edinburgh and Glasgow to see the Pope.

Transport Scotland, which is co-ordinating rail and road services around the visit of Pope Benedict XVI on September 16, said closures were necessary to make sure traffic flows smoothly on the day.
