A727 road

The A727 road links East Kilbride and the M77 motorway northbound. It runs from junction 3 of the M77 in Darnley to the roundabout on the western edge of East Kilbride connecting the A726, otherwise known as the 'Queensway', and Stewartfield Way and Redwood Drive.
Leaving East Kilbride, the road passes through Busby, Clarkston, Giffnock, Thornliebank, Jenny Lind and Arden. It is split between dual and single carriageway, with a section from Peel Road/B766 junction to Spiersbridge Roundabout section being single carriageway, as it passes through the village of Busby, and the towns of Clarkston and Giffnock (excluding the main street of Clarkston, which is a very short dual carriageway).
History.
Until the 1980s, the A727 number applied to what is now the B767, north of Clarkston. In 2006, following the opening of the Glasgow Southern Orbital route, the A727 number was recreated and took over part of what was formerly numbered as the A726.
Route.
The road starts in East Kilbride at the overpass with the roundabout underneath it. The road then goes west towards Busby. The road is called East Kilbride road as it crosses through Thorntonhall Roundabout, then enters East Renfrewshire, leaving South Lanarkshire before heading into Busby. The road meets the B759 then goes under a very low railway bridge before crossing the White Cart. It is then named Main Street before heading through Busby's shops. The road then heads into Clarkston Town Centre as Busby Road. The road then goes through Sheddens Roundabout at the B767 before turning right towards Clarkston Toll. At Clarkston Toll, the B767 leaves before A727 continues west on the Eastwoodmains Road towards Eastwood Toll. At Eastwood Toll, there is a junction to A77. The road goes on the Rouken Glen Road with Eastwood Park to the right and then Rouken Glen Park to the left further along. The road then hits Spiersbridge Roundabout where it meets B769. The road then enters Glasgow along the Nitshill Road. The road ends at the M77 at Darnley.
