M1 motorway at junction 6
Junction 6 is an example of one of the very early styles of motorway access with extremely tightly curved slip roads. The sign tries to warn of the severity. In the early days of motorways, the curvature was not of great consequence: few cars could attain 60mph reliably. For similar reasons there was originally no speed limit on motorways. Most junctions built to this design have been rebuilt, but some survive, most notably the M50's infamous junction 3 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2044290. For comment on this style of junction, see: http://www.cbrd.co.uk/badjunctions/1-405/.

M1 Motorway: Chequers Lane bridge at Junction 6
Two for the price of one here. The near bridge carries the northbound carriageway and the northbound entry slip road at Junction 6, while the far one carries the southbound carriageway. The different building materials suggest that the brick faced near bridge is the original, while the distant concrete one is a later addition, built when the junction was improved.
