Terminal roundabout, view north, 12 December 1997

Terminal roundabout, view north (see all photos of the same view)

The terminus of the roundabout is complete, but a yellow works vehicle - either a road sweeper or a drainage tanker - is busy doing something on the roundabout. In the distance, the newly-dualled A6 can be seen running towards Preston.

M25 Orbital Motorway

The M25 is either one of the greatest transport achievements of the 20th century or one of Britain's largest planning failures, depending on which way you look at it. This booklet takes the former view, celebrating the completion of the circuit in 1986.
