West Cross Route
Desperately-needed but never built, this was one of the only London urban motorway plans that were ever progressed to the construction stage.
A couple of days after the announcement that the A1 was to be made a motorway all the way from London to Newcastle I was driving along the A1 near Newark. I spied someone filming from the verge at the side. A few days later BBC East Midlands had an item on the motorway upgrade and lo and behold there was film of me driving along! Now this was in 1993, and it may have been asked before but are there any plans to upgrade the non motorway stretches of the A1 between Doncaster and London?
