Footbridge over Barrhead Road
The footbridge shown here is no longer present; it was gone by the end of 2006.
At the time when I took the picture, the buildings on the far side included the Pollok Centre. The area has been redeveloped since then. On this occasion, I was crossing the bridge while on the way to the Pollok Kist (a community museum that I visited on the day), which is still based nearby.
The footbridge was in line with the eastern side of Maidland Street (which is just to the north). A set of present-day traffic lights and a pedestrian crossing on Barrhead Road are where the footbridge used to be.
Note the cleared area directly ahead, on the far side of the bridge; construction was then taking place: Image / Image What was being built was the Silverburn Shopping Centre, which opened a few years later: Image
