Bridgeton Cross, also known as 'The Toll' is a major junction, the meeting point of London Road (A74 towards Celtic Park), Dalmarnock Road (A749), Main Street, James Street (leading to Glasgow Green), Olympia Street and Orr Street.

The intersection is notable for the "Brigton Umbrella", a Victorian (1875) cast iron bandstand covering the centre of the Cross.
The landmark structure and surrounds was renovated in the early 21st century, resulting in improved public realm areas and the complete refurbishment of the Umbrella.

Bridgeton Cross is the location for Bridgeton railway station (opened in 1895, closed in 1964, reopened in 1979) which is on the Argyle Line connecting the area to central Glasgow.
The category B listed building which previously housed Bridgeton Central railway station (1892-1979) is a short distance away.
A number of local buses also pass along London Road and Dalmarnock Road.

The Cross is also the location for the Olympia Theatre (built 1911), which after lying abandoned for many years has undergone rebuilding and reopened in 2012 as a library and community facility for the people of Bridgeton.
There are several public houses in the vicinity, with most themed around Rangers F.C.
In 1893 William Millard started Millers Linoleum Stores, renting sheds in Charles Street (now Olympia Street) from the North British Railway Company.
On 26 June 1913 planning permission was granted to build a two-storey warehouse on this land, which had now been purchased by Millard.
Under the directorship of William's great-grandson David Millard, the building was sympathetically renovated in 2013.
Believed to be the only surviving family business from the 1800s in the area, Millers 1893 continues to operate.
