itemprop=description content=SCOTLAND is facing travel chaos as roads and railways are beginning to flood.
Pictures shared online by Network Rail show the weather set to spread across the country this weekend, with fears of flooding.
Network Rail took to social media as travel operators shared they were inundated with messages:"This is Bowling, between Dalmuir and Helensburgh/Balloch where we took the proactive decision to close the line, given the extreme rainfall we’re seeing in this area today". Scotrail announced on Saturday morning further cancellations:"We’ve suspended services between Glasgow Central and Wemyss Bay. The floodwater has now risen above the rails at Branchton."
In a statement, a spokesperson said:"Due to the heavy rainfall the city is experiencing localised flooding is possible around the city and road users should exercise caution on their journeys."march, Dundee vs Ross County was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch and the Scottish Porridge Festival cancelled their parade in Aviemore - but the competition for the Golden Spurtle still went ahead.
