Contact me

Hello! I'm Chris. I run this website. You can contact me using this form. It's always nice to hear from you.

Before you start, the answers to all the most common questions are in the FAQ, and for anything else, you'll find the SABRE forums will provide you with an answer more reliably and more quickly than I can.

I don't have the time to reply to all the emails I receive, but I reply to as many as I can. But please don't get the wrong idea! I'm actually very friendly and your email is more than welcome.

The small print

Here are some things I can't help you with.

  • I am not the government, your local council or National Highways.
  • I am not a highway engineer or a civil engineer.
  • I am not able to advise you on anything to do with traffic law.
  • I don't have official information about the road network. (For traffic counts, precise location of roadside assets, and anything else of that nature, I can only direct you to the Department for Transport.)
  • I'm not going to give you a job.
  • I can't help you get a speed limit, road classification or parking restriction changed.
  • I can't explain to you why a specific speed limit, road classification or parking restriction exists.
  • I can't help you get a parking ticket or speeding fine overturned, or offer you any advice about them.
  • I do not carry paid content and I am not interested in publishing your sponsored link, content placement, guest post, collaboration or advertising.
If your feedback is used on the site, you may be credited by name. Tick the box if you'd prefer to remain anonymous.

What's new

A bridge under troubled bridges

A bridge that was ruined by another bridge, and a type of highway planning beyond any of the UK’s worst nightmares.

The monster seen from below

What might it have been like to stand in one spot and witness the arrival, and the uncertainty, of plans for an urban motorway in West London?

The road that made no sense

It was the UK's only single-carriageway motorway, and twenty years ago it ceased to exist. This is the story of the strange fascination it held, and of my place in history.

Have you seen...

A470 End to End

The road that connects Wales together, but which nobody really uses... All five hours of the A470, from Llandudno to Cardiff, are here.
