According to Scottish CND and Nukewatch, there were nuclear warhead convoys at the end of the month in May, June and July.
The convoys do a return journey from AWE Burghfield in southern England (where the bombs are maintained) to Coulport on the west coast of Scotland (where they’re loaded onto Trident submarines). They travel through Glasgow, a city of 1.6 million people.
Each truck was probably carrying two nuclear warheads.
On 10 June, according to Nukewatch, a special nuclear material convoy left RAF Brize Norton for AWE Aldermaston, the nuclear bomb factory.
