| Comment | Love their podcast. I was chatting with Stuart about getting involved with the motorway archives...and then like a week later lockdown happened.
Most people don't realise that projects like the pedestrianisation of Buchanan, Argyle and Sauchiehall Streets could never have happened had the M8 not got built. Even the ongoing Avenues project requires the M8 to keep existing if it is to have a chance of success. And as you hunt on, congestion is the city centre is something mad like 80% less today than in 1960.
I've said it on here before. If they ever go trying to RIP the motorway up, I'll be among the first chaining myself to bulldozers. |
