Route
This did not exist in the original 1922 numbering plan, but is contemporary with the Kingston bypass, linking the bypass to Wimbledon.
New Malden - Wimbledon Chase
Approaching London on the
A3 at New Malden, a flyover gives access to the A298 (traffic from the other direction has to negotiate a set of traffic lights), and continues at elevation over West Barnes Lane (
B282) and the parallel railway line to Epsom.
A set of traffic lights at the junction with the
B279 Grand Drive (Raynes Park to Sutton) does not detain us long, and then we reach the junction with the
A238 at Wimbledon Chase. Straight on is the
A238, so that is the end of the A298.
