Get in lane.
Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Jul 09, 2006 by Sunil_of_YoxleyMy idea for Catthorpe, making it into a four-way free-flowing interchange with the movements provided by the M69 left out. There is a link to the Catthrope-Swinford road to provide an exit for non-motorway traffic from the A14.
Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Sep 22, 2007 by Rubberduckmy suggestion for the Catthorpe improvements provides access only where it is needed. also there is non-motorway access to the A14 and a bridge layout that minimises visual intrusion Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Jan 02, 2007 by bucephalus

Westbound beneath the M1 (two lanes). But the eastbound is only single-file!

Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Jul 31, 2006 by Sunil_of_YoxleyKeeping the A14 as it is, but installing free-flow links for everything but M1(S) to A14(E), which has to use the minor road underneath. The A14 flies high over the junction to distribute its traffic to every direction, including the local network, as there's a lorry depot around here I believe. I've added a Catthorpe bypass (all 1500m of it or so) to get to the A5. Maybe there could be some 'local services' too..

At first glance this appears to be identical to the HA's preferred option but if you look carefully you'll see the roundabout is designed to allow freeflow A14-M1(N) movements. This has the advantages of allowing full access and making all the important movements freeflow without the added cost of additional bridges. Having roundabouts where joining traffic has priority is nothing unusual and in this case virtually all the traffic on the roundabout will be making this movement.

After M1/M6/A14 improvements are carried out, the footpath south from here will be stopped up, and this part of the road will link directly to/from M6, without the use of an island. http://www.highways.gov.uk/news/pressrelease.aspx?pressreleaseid=411587
