The M4, originally the London-South Wales Motorway, is a motorway in the United Kingdom running from west London to southwest Wales. The English section to the Severn Bridge was constructed between 1961 and 1971; the Welsh element was largely complete by 1980, though a non-motorway section around Briton Ferry bridge remained until 1993.
The Brynglas Tunnels carry the M4 under Brynglas Hill in Newport, Wales. The 360-metre-long (390 yd) [1] tunnels are the first and only twin–bored tunnels in the UK motorway network. [notes 1] The tunnels and adjacent M4 motorway Usk bridge were originally planned by Newport Corporation in August 1959 in a plan submitted to the Ministry of ...
The M4 Motorway is a 55-kilometre (34 mi) [1] series of partially tolled dual carriageway motorways in Sydney designated as route M4. The M4 designation is part of the wider A4 and M4 route designation, the M4 runs parallel and/or below ground to Great Western Highway, Parramatta Road and City West Link, which are part of route A44.
The M4 relief road, also known as M4 Corridor around Newport (M4CaN), [15] was a proposed motorway, south of the city of Newport, South Wales, intended to relieve traffic congestion on the M4 motorway. Originally proposed by the Welsh Office in 1991, [16] it was not pursued by the Conservative Major Government.
In fact, the M4 route runs along a whole series of motorways with the A44 running parallel along non-motorway roads until they converge west of Anzac Bridge. East of here is the Western Distributor, the only section of the A4 route, even though the Western Distributor is also a controlled-access highway (i.e. like a motorway but with lower ...
Since 2020, Highways England (now National Highways) has been developing a South Coast to M4 route strategy. The current preferred route is the A36 to Bath, then the A46 to the M4. Due to the traffic situation in Bath, Highways England may propose de-listing the current route and adopting the A350 instead; this may release funding for further ...
From there a complete loop could be achieved by following the A4, the M5 and M4. The 2005 Greater Bristol Strategic Transport Study, commissioned by the regional government office, recommended construction of the new southern route to tackle congestion. The proposals follow the route set aside west from Hengrove Park roundabout to the A38 at ...
Opened in 1811, it is one of Sydney's oldest roads and Australia's first road between two cities (before Sydney and Parramatta coalesced). As at 2015, over three million commuters every year drove Parramatta Road. [4] The road is the hub of Sydney's motor dealership industry - with 67% of the adjacent land used for motor retailing and services.
