That does not include allowing pedestrians, cyclists,
horses-and-carts, moped-riders and milk-floats to use motorways.


Which motorway is such traffic allowed to use?


The former A40(M), M41 and A102(M) - or at least, the automatic
motorway restrictions no longer apply.

All achieved by stripping those roads of their motorway status and
handing them over to Mad Ken.


I seem to remember that they ceased to be motorways some time before Ken
became Mayor. I'm not sure they were ever to motorway standards, rather
like the M4 elevated section which is very much below today's standards.
