Motorists are being urged to plan ahead as it is rumoured that film crews for the upcoming Spider-Man film will descend on the city later this month.
The highly anticipated sequel, titled Spider-Man: Brand New Day, will see Tom Holland reprise his iconic role, with direction from Destin Daniel Cretton.

It is also believed that Stranger Things star Sadie Sink will appear alongside Holland.
Filming is scheduled to officially begin on August 1, but the shoot will result in widespread disruption for more than two weeks, with road closures, parking bans, and bus lane suspensions in place across the city centre.
Glasgow City Council has confirmed that traffic diversions will be in place and warned that bus and taxi lanes will also be impacted.
Delays and congestion are expected, particularly around key commuter routes.
For the safety of pedestrians, a prohibition of pedestrian movements will also be enforced during periods of filming action.

Pedestrians are advised to follow all on-site signage and instructions from stewards or film crew personnel during these periods for their own safety and to avoid disruption to filming.
It is currently unknown who will be travelling to Glasgow.

The Glasgow Times previously reported that residents and businesses in the city centre had been notified that a production will shut down the area.
On the papers, the project is only referred to as a "feature film".
Glasgow City Council and the officials from the London-based production company both said they would not be able to confirm which film will use the set.
However, the phrase Blue Oasis has been spotted on the written notices, which was reportedly the working title for the newest Marvel film in the past
