EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Scheme) This scheme removes the special road classification from a 3.2 metre wide strip across of the southbound connecting road (southbound entry slip road) between the A4174 Hambrook Interchange roundabout and the M32 motorway. The section will remain trunk road. The proposal will allow non-motorised users to cross the slip road. This proposal will formalise the existing practice of non- motorised users.
