I took inspiration from Benedict's maps and the Paris Metro map to create this map of my city's subway network. It's not finished yet as you can see from the station names

Freeways with High Mast lighting
get13 replied to Sydney Claridge's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
Originally posted by: Houston_Fan Speaking of UK motorways, I saw pictures that the M8 in Glasgow has high mast lighting. I never thought the UK used high mast lighting like that (I thought it was used at only interchanges in the UK, until I saw an aerial view of the M8, but I guess I was wrong...). If anybody could tell me the limits of this high-mast lit segment of the M8, I'll add it to my examples...quote> The M8 is lit entirely with high mast lighting throughout the whole Glasgow area. It is often considered the most "American" motorway in the UK as it is the only UK motorway that cuts directly through a city centre and has some insanely wide sections. At the M8/M77 merge it is 16 lanes wide. The gantries used on Glasgow motorways are unique to this region and arn't present anywhere else in the UK. -

Glasgow has a pretty exstensive motorway/freeway network and has the only motorway in the UK that cuts directly through the city centre. Future Projects (Yellow) http://www.m74completion.com/ http://www.m80steppstohaggs.com http://www.m8completion.com/ The merge of the M8 and the M74 is one of the widest motorways in Europe. The Kingstone bridge is the busiest and widest road bridge in Europe. An old picture Under Construction The aproach to the bridge from the city centre Another crazy Junction The widest non-divided part. 5 lanes each way The M80 splits away from the M8 The M73 ends onto the M74 The M8 and M73

In the display settings try changing hardware rendering to software rendering. This should solve the problem. -
Here's a map showing glasgow's (scotland) highways and theres more than people on this forum realise. Here are some pictures of the main interchanges that are numbered on the map above. This is the widest part of the m8 and the widest motorway in the UK Here is the m8 Kingston bridge over the clyde. It's 8 lanes wide each way and is the busiest and widest bridge in Europe.
