What is SABRE?
We are a group interested in the history, design, geography and structure of the British and Irish road network. We exist as a forum for ideas and opinions and as a hub for information for better understanding of the UK and RoI road network and its history. We are officially neither pro- nor anti- road building, and have no formal links with motorists' organisations or the road construction industry; neither do we have associations with the environmental lobby or pro-car groups.
