Motherwell: Attractions and more...
There is a large shopping district next to the town's main train station known as Brandon Shopping Centre on Brandon Parade. It contains a wide variety of major retailers. There have been suggestions that the new Ravenscraig town centre would disrupt the nearby retail centers such as Brandon but those have settled down after the House of Lords granted the new community town centre status.
The largest "Fun Park" in Scotland is based within Strathclyde Park in the Motherwell vicinity The Park will be a venue for the 2014 Commonwealth Games and the 2011 International Children's Games. It will host the Triathlon event in both. Motherwell is very accessible, as it is right next to the motorway beside the River Clyde. This motorway can lead into as far as Cumbria on the English border. It is also about only a 3 miles drive from the motorway, between the two largest cities of Scotland, Glasgow and Edinburgh.
