M4 BUGGER UP

News has surfaced this week that the contractors building the new motorway intersection at Junction 11 – Laing O’Dork have accidently connected up the wrong slip road to the Mereoak roundabout.

Drivers leaving the M4 travelling westbound will ultimately find themselves on the M4 travelling eastbound toward London. Head Architect Peter Brett commented that whilst some people wouldn’t notice until they arrived at Mr Cod in Cemetery Junction, other more attentive drivers may be tempted to reverse back to Junction 11.

President of the UPSR – Lenny Henry was unavailable for comment.


Reading Borough Council who ultimately rule the junction has taken the decision to leave the slip up in situ as it will alleviate traffic on the IDR which is what was intended from the start. Brewery, up, in a, couldn't.
