M80 new bridge over Luggie Water
This is a completely new bridge. The previous crossing over the river by the A80 was demolished as part of the road upgrade.
The burn joining the Luggie from the left is the Mollins Burn.

Overhead sign Gantry, M80/M73 Junction
A typical “Glasgow-type” sign gantry with the following distinctive elements:
• Near and offside support legs (basically 2 rectangular hollow sections with base plates to allow connections to the foundations)
• A Main Frame (made up of rectangular hollow sections) - Over clad on the front and rear.
• A Sub Frame (made up of smaller hollow sections and welded to main frame).
• A Sign Face - acrylic sheets hung from the front of the sub frame over its full height.
• Internal Electrics - sign lighting provided through the use of several dozen fluorescent battens.
Gantries of this type were first erected as part of the construction of the Kingston Bridge and its approach roads in 1970 and they are now a familiar sight on the motorway network around Glasgow.

Motorway construction, Mollinsburn
Latter stages of work on upgrading the A80 between Haggs and Mollinsburn (names that are all too familiar in traffic reports, at least Auchenkilns Roundabout is no more) This is near where a new build M80 meets the original M73/A80 junction. North of here the motorway was built along the course of the existing A80.
