The westbound off-ramp joining the A4. (The on-ramp is above us to the left).

The A4 at this point is three lanes wide each way, but two of the westbound lanes go the M4 (which narrow to one immediately as can be seen, causing big queues), leaving one to continue along the A4 (where the rubbish cart is going). The motorway exit sign for J2 (on a gantry) is visible too.

Note the barriers -- the elevated section is often closed for maintenance overnight. The green 'A4' sign is in a Motorway font, which is incorrect -- it should be Transport Medium.
