RAIL bosses have launched free water fountains for customers at Glasgow Central.

Two have been installed to encourage passengers, and other station users, to refill their own water bottles rather than buying plastic ones.

The scheme is part of Network Rail’s wider ambitions to improve sustainability and reduce the impact of plastic waste at its stations.

The company also recently announced plans to work with retailers to end the supply of plastic cutlery and cups at its station across Britain by 2020.

Network Rail’s free drinking water initiative was first launched in London’s Charing Cross station in February 2018.

Two fountains have also been installed at Edinburgh Waverley.
