Nice pics. A before and after might be possible on both
I find it a little funny that even back when the motorway was that quite, people still sat in the middle lane

Great photos Kev
The one of George Square/City Chambers looks like it has GO 1 outside the front door of the Chambers waiting on the Lord Provost. If your year is 1983 then that would have been Michael Kelly. If it was later in 1984 then it would have been Robert Gray.
