1. Traffic Management in Glasgow

2. Motorways
The M8 was built right through the heart of the city and allows access directly to the CBD. This links from Port Glasgow to Edinburgh.
The M77 was completed in 1995 at a cost of £135 million. This connects the M8 to the outskirts of Newton Mearns
The extension of the M74 is currently being built which will connect to the M8 at the Kingston Bridge

6. Transport Planning in CBD
One-way system in place
Park and Ride facilities at train stations and underground stations e.g Jordanhill and Kelvinbridge
Underground connecting inner city (Govan to city to west end)
Multi-storey car park facilities in CBD e.g St Enoch Centre and Buchanan Galleries
Parking restrictions and regular patrolling by traffic wardens
Pedestrianisation of streets e.g. Buchanan Street which improves the shopping environment
Bus lanes
