Dance Information

The A74(M) and M74 form a major motorway in the United Kingdom, mainly in Scotland, with a short section in England. Following an extension opened on 28 June 2011, they connect the M8 motorway west of Glasgow to the Scottish-English border at Gretna, creating a route from the south to the west of the city.

In conjunction with the M6 motorway, they form one of the three major cross-border routes between Scotland and England. Although the entire route is usually referred to as the M74, more than half of its length is officially the A74(M).
