  • Distances in kilometres and carriageway identifiers are obtained from driver location signs/location marker posts. Where a junction is across several hundred metres and the data is available, both the start and finish values for the junction are shown.
  • Coordinate data from ACME Mapper.
1.000 mi = 1.609 km; 1.000 km = 0.621 mi
