building is inaccessible, even to staff. It must be either unsafe, or was
damaged in some way.
My interpretation is that it lies inside the cordon that surrounds the
Union Corner building, which is unsafe. This also restricts the
number of entrances.
'Glasgow City Council established an exclusion zone around the
fire-damaged building while demolition work takes place on the
remaining part of the facade.
'This cordon will continue to cover the upper part of Central Station, including the Union Street, Gordon Street and Hope Street entrances,
Network Rail said.' https://news.stv.tv/west-central/glasgow-central-high-level-to-partially-reopen-following-devastating-fire

Has it not already been demolished? Of course, rubble removal will prevent >access to the station?s Gordon St entrance for a while.

I thought only the worst parts were demolished while a decision was
made about full demolition.

I see it has indeed reopened:
https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/live-trains/arrivals/glasgow-central/
It?s handling 1 tph Avanti services on platform 10, with the remaining
Avanti services continuing to terminate at Motherwell.

Is platform 10 the one used for the Caledonian Sleeper?
