The shared footway of the A8 crossing over the M8 motorway. The bridge parapets seemed surprisingly low, considering this is used as an excuse for 'Cyclists Dismount' signs at many locations.
Discriminatory blocking of the route to the Arkleston bridge across the M8 motorway, with tyres being placed over the bollards, narrowing the gaps between them considerably.
The Provan Hall Trail at the far end of Blairtummock Park. From here the trail is signed along Easterhouse Road to Easterhouse Railway Station. The path ends at the motorway sliproad junction. The road ahead, Rogerfield Road, looks even … [more]
Active travel routes into and around Sighthill still closed. This is the path between Craighall Road and Sighthill, alongside the motorway.
The footway and crossings between Garscube Road and Cowcaddens, across and along Phoenix Road, have been shut as part of the M8 motorway viaduct repair work.
A large area has been taken for a works compound for the M8 motorway viaduct repair work. But the path between the Garscube Road footbridge and Braid Square is still open.
I don't think the replacement Sighthill Bridge will be opening in "the early months of 2022". https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=27331
The pedestrian crossings at Anderston Cross have been surrounded by hoardings, making sightlines rather poor.
The pedestrian crossings at Anderston Cross have been surrounded by hoardings, making sightlines poor. However, the lack of traffic coming from the Clydeside Expressway has made it easier to cross on red as there are more gaps in the … [more]
Freshly painted Advance Stop Lines at Anderston Cross, but none at the second stop lines under the motorway bridge.
Temporary closure of the path east of the Phoenix Road underpass for work on the crumbling motorway flyover. The Colleges Cycle Route is not affected at this stage.
Harthill Services footbridge A "combined pedestrian/cycleway which not only complies with current standards, but also provides an aesthetically pleasing gateway structure that will encourage the use of the recently extensively redeveloped … [more]
The area under the M8 motorway at Anderston Cross is being painted fancy colours a couple of months before the COP26 conference hits town. The area outside the station frequently resembles a car park.

The area underneath the M8 motorway at Anderston Cross is being painted a couple of months before the COP26 conference hits town. The Anderston Bridge, Stobcross Bridge, and various roads are proposed to be closed during the conference, and … [more]
Still plenty to do to connect up the replacement bridge across the M8 motorway between Townhead and Sighthill.
More barriers at the foot of the ramp of the motorway footbridge, making 12 half-width panels to navigate around in total.
More barriers on the motorway footbridge. Offsetting the stairs from the main span would have protected them from anyone inadvertently falling down them, if that's what these barriers are for.
The footbridge between Cockels Loan and Arkleston Road over the M8 motorway. The ramps have multiple barriers to slalom around. A desire line is developing in the grass from the north east.
The pedestrian crossings form part of the original Glasgow to Paisley cycle route, opened by Cllr Charlie Gordon back in 1993. This section is part of one of the many 'Cyclists Dismount' sections, and it remains so to this day. Nowadays, … [more]
The sign should really mention that motorway regulations begin immediately on the road with the motorway numbers all in brackets. This is a sliproad directly onto the eastbound M8 motorway, see #170597.
The signs at the foot of the footbridge connecting the two parts of Beech Avenue across the M8 motorway. The direction sign is obscured by tree braches, and not visible if following the original Paisley to Glasgow cycle route (an important … [more]
The footbridge connecting the two parts of Beech Avenue across the M8 motorway, and part of the original Glasgow to Paisley cycle route. The footbridge ramps have a single step at each side of the bridge.

It's clear here what the transport priorities are when there are steps at one side of this footbridge.
Shallow steps leading to motorway footbridge at Clifford Street that could be replaced by a proper ramp. The same problem as the other access at #152263.
Shallow steps leading to motorway footbridge at Clifford Street that could be replaced by a proper ramp. The same problem as the other access at #152264.
'Cyclists Dismount' at the footbridge across the motorway connecting Queenslie Industrial Estate and the Fort shopping centre.
Ramped access to the underpass under the M8, linking Barfillan Drive and Jura Street to Craigton Road. This is the nearest dropped kerb if coming from Jura Street. Lots of roadspace crying out for some reallocation to enable active travel.
A single uncontrolled sliproad crossing with 'Cyclists Dismount' signs (see #51057) has been replaced with two uncontrolled sliproad crossings, without signs. No attempt to line up the footway with the crossings.
Extremely poor finishing at the expansion joint at the north end of the Eurocentral bridge over the M8 motorway.
The remains of the buffer strip (see also #51059) separating the shared-use footway from the carriageway can just be seen.
The cyclepath, A8 dual carriageway and M8 motorway approaching Eurocentral. I'm sure it would have been possible to design a more economical A8 road layout at this point. The road to the right is a field/land access with next to no traffic … [more]
Motorway regulations apply henceforth. A bit bigger than the equivalent cycle route confirmation sign.
The farm access road alongside the new M8 motorway has a direct connection to the 'all purpose' A8 dual carriageway, which, as the sign says, is unsuitable for pedestrians and cyclists.
The foot and cycle bridge over the M8 motorway and A8 dual carriageway to the Showcase Cinema and Kirkwood, but why the gate?
A sign for the footbridge over the M8 motorway and A8 dual carriageway to the Showcase Cinema and Kirkwood.
The reverse view of #99830 shows this access road leads only to this piece of land. The route ahead becomes a cyclepath.
The cyclepath becomes a farm access road again. I doubt there's much traffic to give way to (see #99831).
The M8 cyclepath crossing the A752-A8 sliproad at grade. Why are some 'Give Way' and other signs lit but not other similar signs at this junction?
The M8 cyclepath crossing NCN75 and the A752 at grade. Signage this way for NCN75 but not straight ahead to Glasgow.
The M8 cyclepath crosses the busy A752 road and A8 sliproad at grade. Why only a flyover for motorists? And no directions facing this way for NCN75 other than a Sustrans sticker.
Some path damage due to construction traffic on the new cyclepath adjacent to the M8 motorway approaching the A752 crossing.
A downhill section on the farm access road and cycle route adjacent to the new M8 motorway. The Showcase foot and cycle bridge can be seen in the distance.
A junction between a section of cyclepath alongside the M8 motorway and Bredisholm Road coming off its bridge over the motorway and A8 dual carriageway. If the intent was that cyclists would go to Bargeddie (and not straight ahead to … [more]
If you can't read the sign next to the bridge, and don't know which side of this barrier to pass, no worries - it's pointing the wrong way anyway! See also #97669 and #99654.
The path to Eurocentral has still to open (due to subsidence, see #97667) but no diversion has been signed.
Signs at the junction of bridges over the massive Shawhead road junction. You'll know where you're going if coming from Eurocentral? The route to/from Eurocentral is shut just now in any case, with no signed diversion.
If you want to go south to Bellshill you must first go north to go around the end of this barrier. And if you're coming south you need to pick a side and hope you've picked the right side when you get to the direction sign in #99653. See … [more]
Two of these signs are pointing in the wrong direction. With non-logical routes involving multiple turns for destinations served by direct roads, it's important that signs can't be turned around. The signs on the M8 motorway in the … [more]
If motorway regulations apply up to the sign, shouldn't there be a fence between the motorway and the path?
The start of the toucan crossing chain from the former Harry Ramsden's restaurant to the Paisley Road cycle track.
Toucan crossings over Paisley Road and the sliproad from Carnoustie Street, under the Kingston Bridge.
Hopefully the new cycle route proposed for Jura Street will fix the problem of the missing dropped kerb at the ramp up to the M8 motorway underpass.
Jura Street where a new cycle route is proposed linking the M8 motorway underpass to Bellahouston Park.
A new approach path to the M8 motorway underpass at the end of Craigton Road, arranged to dissuade obstructive parking, although this doesn't always work (see #102730).
@andy_fab Here is the path at Shawhead which heads towards Eurocentral, affected by landslip This is the only unopened section but it has been like this since about August last year. They fence it off and folk pull off the fences but not … [more]
The as yet unopened cycleway beneath the Bredisholm Road bridge, next to the M8 motorway. The path appears to be routed around a SUDS pond, after which it rejoins a position adjacent to the motorway. Not sure a road would be designed like … [more]
The as yet unopened cycleway beneath the Bredisholm Road bridge, next to the M8 motorway. Note that the signs at the junction with Brediholm Road are for destinations requiring a sharp turn and no destination is given for straight ahead.
The new bridge over the A8 and M8 for Bredisholm Road is still not quite ready! Note that the sign on the left says it's a No Through Road, but the sign on the right gives destinations reachable via this road. Highly illogical! But no … [more]
The replacement Bredisholm Road farm road access bridge across the A8 and M8 motorway was originally meant to be ready to reopen in July 2016, but looks like there is still quite a bit of work to do if it is to meet the revised target of … [more]
The cycleway crosses the A8 sliproad on an uncontrolled crossing to the right of the mini-roundabout. When I crossed, a driver stopped to wave me across when I suddenly appeared from behind a van. I get that there are roadworks going on, … [more]
