Footbridge
During the 1950s when the main Glasgow to Edinburgh trunk road (A8) passed through the village the need for a road bridge to improve the safety of pedestrians was raised at Westminster on several occasions. The bridge was completed in 1961 only 6 years before the M8 bypassed the village to the north in August 1967.

A relic from the days when this road was the 3 lane A8 - the main road between Glasgow and Edinburgh. The bridge is still required as the road remains busy even though now replaced by a motorway.
