Gallery:A334
Heading outbound from the Kanes Hill Roundabout towards Jct 7 of the M27. The local transport plan will see this road widened to S2+1, although D2 would be better, as you get long traffic queues forming in both directions; inbound caused by a single set of Southampton's traffic lights at the junction of Thornhill Park Road and Hinkler Road, which don't give enough time to A334 traffic in rush hour and create horrendous delays.
