A80 road - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The road, which has been converted to motorway standard at its beginning and end sections, is one of Scotland's busiest, taking traffic in a north easterly direction from Glasgow, to the new town of Cumbernauld, and then onward to Stirling where it merges with the M9 which eventually becomes the A9 to the North. |
 | | The troublesome Auchenkilns roundabout in Cumbernauld was finally replaced by a grade separated junction between the A80 and A73 which opened in November 2005, but the widely regarded long term solution to the A80's problems is to replace it entirely with a motorway which will bypass Cumbernauld completely. |
 | | The Scottish Executive announced in 2003 that the A80 would be upgraded to Motorway standard, replacing the A80 from Stepps to Haggs with the M80. |
