• Three lane roads...

    From Jim GM4DHJ ...@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jun 27 23:49:43 2019
    With everybody wanting to overtake I think they should bring back the three lane A road........all 1950s three lane roads have now been converted to two lanes but why not bring the three lane road back with the middle lane
    providing overtaking in both directions? ...it was a great design and I remember it well .... ....think about it the middle lane would allow all
    those punters who only want to overtake the chance to be doing so all the
    time in their own dedicated lane !.....

    The new Newtown bypass has three-lane sections, with the centre lane
    signed for overtaking in one direction or the other. The
    Llanwnda-Caernarfon bypass, under construction, will be the same.

    There are short alternate stretches like that on the A36 Warminster bypass.
