WSKC | West of Scotland Kart Club

Larkhall is located just off the M74, some 20 miles south of Glasgow and about 85 miles north of Carlisle. The WSKC track is situated to the north of Larkhall off Merryton Road which in turn is off the A72 Hamilton to Lanark road. There are no signposts indicating the location of the track so please follow the instructions below carefully.

Travelling North
Travelling north on the M74, leave at Junction 8. You must leave by this exit as Junction 7, a few miles up the M74, is only accessible from the north. Likewise, when leaving Larkhall to travel south you will not be able to access the motorway from Junction 7. Turn left at the end of the motorway slip road and travel about 500 metres to the roundabout known as Canderside Toll. Turn right at the roundabout on to the B7078 and head towards Larkhall. Pass all the way through Larkhall including all the traffic lights and roundabouts. Once you are through Larkhall turn right onto the A72 heading towards Lanark. Approximately 1 km along the A72, turn right into Merryton Road. The track entrance is situated approximately 300 metres up Merryton Road on the left. The track is not accessible from the junction of the B7078 and Merryton Road as the old railway bridge is no longer standing.

Travelling South
Travelling south on the M74, leave at Junction 7. When you reach the 'T' junction, at the end of the slip road, turn right onto the A72 heading towards Hamilton. Cross the motorway bridge but DO NOT take the turning to the left for Larkhall. Carry straight on and, approximately 500 metres along the road, turn 2nd left into Merryton Road. The track entrance is situated approximately 300 metres up Merryton Road on the left.
