Glasgow Inner Ring Road

The Glasgow Inner Ring Road is a partially completed ring road encircling the city centre of Glasgow, Scotland. Construction of the roads began in 1965, and half of its circumference was completed by 1972 - forming part of the wider M8 motorway, but no further construction was made and the remaining plans were formally abandoned in 1980.

After 30 years, a route following roughly the southern section of the proposals have also been created as the new M74.
