A55 Junction Numbers - Chester

They've actually done it now? There was a press release which stated that the HA would renumber the junctions "early in the new year", but I thought they may have decided that patching junction numbers on the A55 on some local authority's say-so wasn't a good use of resources after all.
Has anyone got a list of the junctions before renumbering? The link above doesn't work anymore and I can't find a cached version of it anywhere.

The reason I ask is that either our pages are wrong, or legislation.gov.uk is wrong; but I suspect both might be:
This talks about Broughton Interchange being J36a
http://www.legislation.gov.uk/wsi/2018/ ... 097_en.pdf

We redirect that to Broughton Heath Junction (J39) where we reference that it was J36a.

But I think looking at the legislation itself, they're referring to J37

Anyone know for sure what the numbers were?

Sabre Maps has the answer - the recently added OS 1:250,000 sheets from 2013 and 2016 show the before and after numbering.

As the OP contains quotes I take it this thread was split from some other one?

Thanks rob. I forgot we had the new maps now.

Yes, this is quotes from another ancient thread that I didn't want to resurrect particularly... On mobile at mo so not easy to find which one it was...

Ah, so we're right and legislation.gov.uk is wrong. Excellent.
