@trafficscotland @SWTrunkRoads Hi, I don’t see any updates on M74 this morning, but according to Maps the road is no longer closed. Can you please confirm?

[Jonathan Coates @J_Coates78]

@trafficscotland @SWTrunkRoads Is it possible to say if the M74 will be reopened by tomorrow morning? 🙏

[Duncan Mackay @duncanjourno]

Exclusive: Some good news for the Commonwealth Games, I am hearing. Multiple people have told me during the @olympics at @paris2024 that @thecgf have reached an agreement with Scotland for Glasgow to host the 2026 Commonwealth Games. They will replace Victoria, who withdrew last year. An announcement is due shortly after the end of these Olympics - maybe even this week.

[Jonathan Coates @J_Coates78]

@Natalyacoyle We did. #Elodie

Kate French of Great Britain has withdrawn from the Women’s Final of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games due to sickness. She will be replaced in the Final by reserve athlete Annika Zillekens of Germany.
