Hamilton has suffered badly at the hands of those who thought that they could maintain a traffic flow through an urban area. There are several 1960s roads carving up the centre. Here opposite Baird's (a department store) is a busy junction of Duke Street and Quarry Street (my map says Gateside, the signs on site say Quarry Street) One of the roads however is pedestrianised ( the continuation of Quarry Street, centre left).
