Old Signs
Examples of the increasingly rare signs from before the big change-over in the mid 1960's.
C-Roads
A collection of photos of signs confirming the existence of C-roads.
Spontaneous Motorway
The unique and bizarre situation on the A1 Micklefield Bypass, West Yorkshire.
Bingley Relief Road
Most bypasses go around the town they relieve. Not so the Bingley Relief Road, which ploughs through the town centre instead.
Cockfosters
A North London roundabout signposted almost exclusively in pre-Worboys signs.
1950s Streetlights
Some examples of the old-fashioned concrete lamp posts dating from the 1950's with their distinctive arched arm and fin around the back. These are now very much a dying breed.
Old Motorway Photos
A gallery of images sent in by visitors to the site of original photos of motorways — including some impressive views of the M4 and M11 under construction.
Thelwall Viaduct
Thousands of vehicles travel the M6 between the M56 and M62 each day. They all cross the River Mersey and the Manchester Ship Canal, and the bridge that carries them is notorious from travel reports nationwide. But what does it actually look like from the ground?
New Medway Viaducts
Taken over the course of two years, from 2002 to 2003, these sixteen images chart the construction of two new bridges alongside the M2 Medway Viaduct.
Scammonden Bridge
If you've ever been on the M62 across the Pennines, you'll know the one. It's the huge arched bridge 120ft above the road. And this is what it's like when you're standing on top of it!
M1 Architecture
The most unique motorway in Britain owes its identity to its fifties architecture. Much of it is in danger of being removed or irreperably altered. This page documents it in detail.
M1 under construction
Pictures taken as the first section of the M1 was being built in 1958-9, with all its unique architecture still under construction.
A Piece of History
The lowly and pathetic A6144(M) motorway was downgraded in May 2006. This is the story of the mission to rescue some memorabilia.
