Chryston Tunnel Bridge

Chryston Tunnel Bridge, named for a former tunnel which was opened out, carried Cumbernauld Road over the Monkland and Kirkintilloch Railway. It was broadened with the addition of a further bridge on its south side when the road became the A80. This view looks north towards the bridges, the arch of the older bridge is visible through the newer. The mysterious red artefacts in the sky are real - this is an evening view and these are high pressure sodium lights mounted on masts above the dual carriageway.
