Commonwealth Games - Parkhead

Only 10 days to go to the Commonwealth Games 2014. So I took a wee wander around the London Road and Springfield Road area today to see the changes. The area is looking good, with many new developments that will remain after the games are finished. The biggest is the new velodrome across the road from Celtic Park. This is sponsored by Emirates and is dedicated to Chris Hoy.

The velodrome will remain as a sports stadium and the athletes village will become local housing.
 
It is also nice to see that the old London Road Tavern has been re-furbished.

now "The Real McCoy".
Nice modern pub now
and it also does food.
