A74 road

The A74 was a major trunk road in the United Kingdom, linking Glasgow in Scotland to Carlisle in the North West of England. It had been a vitally important link between Scotland and England for centuries, particularly since Thomas Telford's work in the 19th century, and consequently was continually upgraded and ultimately replaced by the A74(M) and M74 motorways. The final section, entirely in England, was replaced in 2008.
