I wondered across this informative yet funny site today, as the name suggests it has a page for every useless motorway in Britain, both current and former examples. Even some motorways that were so useless, they never even got built!

Some examples include:
--The A601(M), which at is southern end, ends at a T junction with a give way sign!
--The A6144(M), which is single carriageway throughout its entire length and finishes with a set of traffic lights (and I thought you aren't supposed to stop on motorways!)

Enjoy!

ROFL!

This has to be one of the most amusing web sites I've ever looked at, I'm actually crying with laughter at some of the captions and descriptions :lol: :lol:

The M606 always amused me... ending in a mini roundabout! :D

Yep, and if you look at the M898 I wrote a comment about it (well, my Dad told me what to say.... As I can't drive yet.:happy10::happy10:)

Gareth likes the M898:
"I personally think this is the best Motorway in the UK. Without it I would be very stuck and have to drive around the city to get to the A82!

It may be pathetic but it is very very handy and those bends are nothing after you have been on an American Highway sliproad. Believe me!"
