Glasgow's unfinished ring road is a rollercoaster

Take a ride on the amazing M8 through central Glasgow and prepare for sensory overload - a UK motorway that's straight out of Los Angeles. (No, it really is - the M8's engineers copied design guidance from California.) It's 10 November 2005, and we're taking a trip from the M80 to the M77. The motorway itself hasn't changed so much, but can you spot changes around Glasgow as we pass through? You'll also see the Plantation interchange complex south of the Clyde before the M74 Extension arrived, and many older type Glasgow-type gantry signs that have since been refurbished and replaced.
