This Scheme at paragraph 2(1) authorises the Scottish Ministers, as special road authority, to provide a special road along those routes described in the Schedule, between Baillieston and Newhouse.
Paragraph 2(2) provides that, except insofar as the special road is to be provided by appropriating existing lengths of trunk road, this special road will become trunk road on the date of the coming into force of the Scheme. The exception in this provision in respect of existing lengths of trunk road reflects that those lengths of road are already classified as trunk road.
Paragraph 3 prescribes the classes of traffic which are permitted to use the special road.
Copies of the Environmental Statement prepared for the project, and the plan referred to in the Scheme, may be inspected, free of charge, at the offices of Transport Scotland, Buchanan House, 58 Port Dundas Road, Glasgow G4 0HF between 0900 hours and 1630 hours (Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays).
