New Radnor Bypass opening date

Post by Ross Spur »

Hoping someone can help with this one.

The A44 bypass is shown on the January 1982 OS Wales and West Midlands 1:250000 Routemaster map. There are no revisions of the 1:50000 maps from 1974 until 1986.

If anyone has the 1980 or 1981 Wales and West Midlands 1:250000 maps please let me know if the New Radnor bypass is shown.

My copies of those Routemasters is where I currently can't get at, but on the Route Planning Maps it's shown on both the 1980 and 1981 editions, but not the 1979.

Thanks Steven, what would be the revision dates for the 1979 and 1980 maps?

"Major roads revised" June 1978 and June 1979 respectively.
