ive got to ask why?

Its for a personal journal that I have to keep as part of my course.
I used to travel every week from glasgow to edinburgh,as a child and remember the bridge and motorway being built.
Shame it was let rot and get ruined , although I have been on the new bridge and it is going the same way already.

the problem is whats around it
i lived nearby in Fauldburn and thats a hole,same as most of the other areas around
after that i commuted edinburgh/glasgow every day so i saw way more of the harthill services than i would have cared to
