If so, Heritage Way would count as it has a junction like this with the B5101, and interestingly its the unclassified road that's the higher standard here, I assume as it was built to serve the Brymbo steelworks (now a housing development)wallmeerkat wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 09:47 Do the likes of this count where S2s bridge rather than meet at a crossroads but there is a single connecting road?

Grade-separated Junctions on Single Carriageway Roads

Built for comfort, not speed.
Re: S2 GSJ's
Also on the A9, Bankfoot was converted to a sort of D1 GSJ before the dualling was started, and then there is this junction at Alness which is sort of grade separated without any of the benefits of being so. Likewise this one at Blair Atholl, although not sure if this one at Pitlochry really counts - it's hatched down to D1 on the A9.
There are a handful of similar junctions along the old A74 around Lockerbie, thanks to the motorway being too close to the old road, so a bridge crosses both with a spur to meet the old road. Here and here for instance.
There's also this S1 GSJ on Lewis!

I don't like thinking about how badly I am doing.

Re: S2 GSJ's
I've argued previously (perhaps not very successfully) that this is a historic S2 GSJ in Goodrich as you can get up on the bridge by taking the next two rights to get to another part of the village.

Re: Grade-separated Junctions on Single Carriageway Roads
The most fascinating grade separated junction of this type I can think of is the A21 / A28 junction just north of Hastings here. I've got no idea when it was built - it's on historic 19th century six inch mapping.

Re: Grade-separated Junctions on Single Carriageway Roads
This one a little to the north on the former course of the A229 may well be of a similar origin and vintage - https://maps.app.goo.gl/5uSbKMfzS5LUkT3D9Ritchie333 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 10:53 The most fascinating grade separated junction of this type I can think of is the A21 / A28 junction just north of Hastings here.

Re: Grade-separated Junctions on Single Carriageway Roads
Given that the S2 GSJ thread has been merged into the more general "Single Carraigeway Roads" thread, can I mention the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum GSJ over the S4 A2(NI)?

Re: Grade-separated Junctions on Single Carriageway Roads
This must be one of the oldest. East of Sticklepath on the old A30 in Devon. No date stone that I could see.
