Distance
1
Single track north from Wolvercote
The A44 (prior to 1991, A34) drops down to a single lane each way between Wolvercote and Yarnton. For reasons best known to the UK's transport planners (sic), this section was never dualled, though that from Woodstock to Yarnton was improved long before the M40 came on the scene. The 50 limits which infest the route for most of its length to Stratford arrived concurrently with the M40 as part of a policy to get traffic onto the motorway.

A44 north - or is it?
For those of a certain age, this will always be the A34, the major route from Southampton to the Midlands and Manchester before the M40 was finally opened in 1991. Concurrent with the M40 opening, the Chipping Norton to Oxford section of the A34 was renumbered A44.
