Yet another shambles in "ROAD MANAGEMENT" from SLC!! Cars & HGV's going roads they shouldn't. I met 3 vehicles going the WRONG WAY on the SINGLE ONE WAY OUT of STONEHOUSE on Monday!!Signage not clearly stating where you or CAN'T go!!! Then when you do get out of Stonehouse,there's more roadworks at Newmilns OR Larkhall(even M74 N slip road closed there on Sunday!!??) What idot set all this up?? And there's more to come????
