A49 underbridge, view west (see all photos of the same view)

The roundabout and motorway carriageways leading to it are now complete, though the surface and road markings are hard to make out beneath a layer of mud and dust from the landscaping works in the central reservation. Signs have been installed in the last few months.

What's new

Hello, here's my ridiculous side project

An introduction to what I write, and why I write it, and where my strange new road sign simulator fits in to all this.

London, in a new light

It was specially designed never to be noticed. And now it's disappearing, nobody has noticed its absence. It's London's own bespoke street light.

The Ringways Map is here

The wait is over! The full map of the Ringways, London’s unbuilt urban motorway network, is now online. Not even the system's planners had anything like this.
