Ermin Way

The new road makes a more gradual climb than the Roman road.

Dual to Single

The s/bnd side is set to be a cycle path and the n/bnd an S2

Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Dec 01, 2008 by SteveA30

Fast cycle track

A good turn of speed should be possible down here. Perhaps a cycle Gatso may be needed.

A gift for a Sabristi perhaps.

Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Dec 01, 2008 by SteveA30

This was the only evidence of the former crossroad signals. Looking south.

Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Dec 01, 2008 by SteveA30

A419 - Blunsdon Bypass

View north from the GSJ. 40 with a Gatso, probably the same one from the old road. Only temporary though. Note coned off 3rd lane on the uphill side. A good feature when 2 lorries are side by side on the hill.

A419 - Blunsdon Bypass 2

View south, where the new meets the old route.

Southbound

Joining the A419 from Blunsdon, for a coffee at Sainsburys, off the A420 junction. The price was reduced from £1.05 to £1.02, due to the VAT cut. Wow
