The M8 motorway was closed at 8.40pm on Thursday after a vehicle breached the barrier on Renfrew Road, which passes over the motorway on a westbound alignment.

Renfrew Road between the Abbotsinch Retail Park roundabout and the Arkleston Road roundabout has since reopened following the incident.

Two females involved in the incident were transported to hospital to receive medical treatment.
