Bit off topic but what do you call those slip roads

Oct 07, 2004 8 Replies

You know the ones that don't end like a normal slip roads but go on at one junction and off at the next. I know it's an odd thing to ask but I was on the way home from the pub this morning (no I hadn't been drinking but it was late) and the roads were virtually deserted and I passed one of them and started wondering if there is a special name for them?


No. I just want to know what to call them other than "them bloody annoying things"

I only know 2 places where they are

on the A2 (or is it the A20?) just before you hit the M25 coming out of London or on the M20 between junction 5/6

pains in the arse they are

I pass one on my way to work...

dont know if this is what they are really called but if it is busy the warning signs flash "CAUTION que on slip road.

HTH

They are all over the place further north, a warning sign telling you it's one would come in handy if you don't know the area as it's always the junction you want and on a bend.
