Riley Green interchange, view west (see all photos of the same view)

The new interchange is seen at the bottom of this picture; stretching away in the distance, almost to the M61, the motorway itself is looking surprisingly near to completion from this angle.

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.

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.
