A66 - Eastbound toward Barnard Castle - Coppermine - 1320.jpg
A66 - Eastbound toward Barnard Castle

The A66, heading easbound. Note the snow poles - in winter enormous snowploughs are used to clear the road. It's actually a very good drive, and will be even better once the villages on the route are bypassed. It's a favourite with truckers...

Signpost to Bengeo outside the house of Biggles, Hertford. Sorry about the quality - the transfer to this photo album seems to have made the resolution so bad that it's difficult to read now..

The road here is in the process of what appears to be a motorway upgrade - all the crossing the traffic bits have been removed, and junction improvements in progress...

This road doubles as a river if there's a lot of rain, so be careful what time of year you leave your car there!

Norwegian Elk sign

Note that in Scandinavia, hazard signs have a 'to' and 'from' distance - so in this example there is a risk of elk from 0,2km ahead to 4,9km ahead

E75 Finland, through a section of roadworks

Unlike in the UK, they don't bother doing one carriagway at a time and using temporary traffic lights. Neither do they put temporary tarmac alongside to drive along. No, here you just bump down onto the dirt and drive on that for a few miles.

Elk Warning Sign, E4, sweden

These signs were prevalent all over Sweden and Finland (which had a slightly different image - will see if I can find one...) Note that Norway uses white backed signs, whereas Sweden and Finland use yellow backed signs.
