This bizarrely brief (overall) dual carriageway section is relatively long compared to the minor junction (Nursery Road) it allegedly might help and from an era when large motor vehicles lacked anything like normal acceleration especially up the slope. Ripe for a retrenchment like the plans for a dualled Walton Bridge on the same road, it is unlikely the councils will agree funds and maintenance to restore trees that dominated the site. But some re-greening is currently the zeitgeist in national news and comparable boroughs (Waltham Forest) so Spelthorne may see what used to be which locally is clearly beautiful. It also pre-dates the motorway.
