Great find. Who knew the Institute of Advanced Motorists was around back then?

NCN1 between Hull & Beverley. No detour signs. Huge backtrack @sustrans.bsky.social. at least there's no mud.

Yes. It is now down at street level and the yellow phone is replaced with an intercom.

Also...

It’s happening! After 40 years of advocacy for (and a ferocious NIMBY campaign against) construction of a ramp to the Sydney Harbour Bridge cycleway is finally underway 🎉

Nice, looks just like Portchester along the coast😉

Jn 9 is more likely to be the result of speeding vehicles coming off of Roman Way. A camera zone would help. During lock down there was some terrifying driving along that stretch.
