It's now available on SABRE Maps for everyone to enjoy.

Other than the abolishment of Cumbria, what other changes can you find on there from the 2023 edition?
I'm surprised the current A30 and A303 dualling schemes aren't shown completed. Map makers tend to get ahead of themselves with these sort of things.
How would you like your grade separations, Sir?
Big and complex.

The former A523 through Poynton is not shown now (following opening of the Relief Road) and Preston Western Distributor Road to M55 J2 is shown as complete.

Great news!

Thanks to a contact within Ordnance Survey, we now have the full set of OS Miniscale releases from the first OpenData release in 2010 to the latest 2024 edition, confirming SABRE Maps as the largest online repository of these maps available anywhere in the world - and I believe that we're the only location where you can actually view all of the editions.

So, this means that we now have a great overview of all changes in the road network over the last 14 years.

Woohoo! Now I can almost watch the A1 through Yorkshire get upgraded to motorway in real time.
