thousands of people flocked to Glasgow Green last weekend for TRNSMT.
Glasgow’s GMB convenor says the city council’s event’s team should be reinstated to help tidy up public spaces hosting large festivals and events.
But the GMB says its workers would have organised recycling and rubbish facilities more efficiently and that their overnight staff did a “fantastic job” cleaning up areas around Glasgow Green including Saltmarket and the city centre, which was not the responsibility of the private contractor. “If it was, I think the park would have been cleaned far quicker. It would have been reopened to the public much faster and I do believe that there would have been a better allocation of bins on site.
He added: “The night shift workers were out cleaning up the city centre and the outskirts of Glasgow Green Saltmarket after the festival. They did that job in one night and I want to thank the night time workers at Polmadie and the Anderson depot who did a fantastic job.”
