		The route consists of the Monkland motorway, the north and west flanks of the inner ring road and the Renfrew motorway.
		The Renfrew motorway continues the M8 westwards from the inner ring road at the Kingston Bridge to the former city boundary at Shieldhall Road.
		Parallel to the Renfrew motorway on the north side of the Clyde is the Clyde expressway which connects the north end of Kingston Bridge to the north approaches to the Clyde Tunnel; the southern end of the tunnel connects with the Renfrew motorway at Cardonald interchange.

	M8 motorway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The M8 is a motorway in Scotland and is one of its busiest
		The motorway is sixty miles long - excluding a six-mile gap between the Glasgow suburb of Baillieston and Newhouse - and is notorious for the traffic jams associated with its Central Glasgow section.
		With the advent of motorway-building beginning in the United Kingdom in the late 1950s, the M8 was planned as one of a core of new motorways, designed to replace the A8 road as a high-capacity alternative for intercity travel.

	M77 motorway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The M77 motorway is a motorway in Scotland.
		It originally began in southern Glasgow at the M8 motorway at Kinning park, and terminates near Kilmarnock at the village of Fenwick.
		However, changes were made in autumn 2005 segregating a lane on the M8 motorway almost as far as the Kingston Bridge, which in January 2006 was extended further actually onto the bridge itself.

	M8 Glasgow - J20 Kingston
		Normally there are two lanes straight on for M8 West, but for the duration of the works, the lane markings have been changed, and two lanes instead turn right.
		The separation of the motorway carriageways in the foreground was to allow for the eastbound access from the Renfrew Motorway to the south flank of the Inner Ring Road.
		The splay on the slip roads would have allowed the carriageways from the Renfrew Motorway to close in with the extended carriageways from the Kingston Bridge.

		This section was already dualled and grade-separated when the M8 was built, so it was left in place.

	Definition of M74 motorway
		The motorway runs from Glasgow 53 km (33 miles) south east, where it is arbitrarily renamed the A74(M).
		Alongside the motorway are the B-graded roads, the B7076 and B7078.
		This has been a subject of much political wrangling, as the Scottish Executive feel that it is not their responsibility as the stretch of road is in England, while the Department of Transport argue that because most of the A74/M74 is in Scotland, it is therefore a Scottish problem.

		The M8 was designed following the designation of large parts of central Glasgow as Comprehensive Development Areas - districts of slum housing and derelict industrial property which were to be completely cleared and redeveloped.
		Only half of the inner ring road was competed as planned, the west and north flanks, together with radial motorways out to the east and to the west - together forming the route of the M8 through the city.
		A further radial motorway to the SW was eventually completed as the M77.

		When the M8 motorway was extended east from the temporary terminus at Whitburn, the southern half of the B7002 road joining East Whitburn and Bathgate was cut, and a new road was built to replace it and to serve a junction on the new motorway.
		Where the M8 motorway was opened parallel to the A8, the A8 was again redesignated: The A89 number was already following the original line of the A8 west of Bathgate, so it was natural that this number should be extended east from Bathgate to Newbridge.
		The junction with the B792 was also upgraded, from a flat crossroads to a motorway-style grade-separated intersection, and long before it had been decided to build a new M8 motorway on a new line to the south.

	TheGlasgowStory: M8 Motorway
		This stretch of the M8 is often referred to as the Monkland Motorway, as it was built on the bed of the Monkland Canal.
		The canal was once the most profitable in Scotland, carrying coal, iron, steel, timber and lime from the Coatbridge area to Glasgow, but by 1950 it had been abandoned and presented a health and safety hazard.
		When the demand for Glasgow-Edinburgh motorway became overwhelming (the first section opened in 1964), the canal provided a natural route through the east end of the city.
