[olly 0]

In this competition you need to have your motorway knowledge about you to answer the road questions

The scoring works like this:
Correct Road - 5 points
Each Question - 2 points each
Where It Is - 3 points

There will be four questions for each road and a part of junction picture

One hint per road is available but at the cost of 1 point for the person who askes for it.

2 Posts rule applies yadda yadda yadda.

OK first road:
Which city does it circulate?
How many junctions does it have?
When did it open?
Why do people hate it?

And here is a section of sign from one of the junctions:

Wild guess: Is that Route A21?

Seriously, a sign with the name on it does not make for good contest material.

Incorrect!!
I see your point, but this is a section of road sign from the route, it could be a jucion to that road from another road HINT HINT. I should have made that clearer...

There's only one interstate which goes west to Orlando, and it's I-4.  This is an intrastate interstate, existing only within the state of Florida between the cities of Tampa and Daytona Beach (Orlando is in the middle). Since it's an even number, it's technically an east-west route, but it travels almost as much north-south. The two controlling reasons for signing it east-west would be that A)there are no odd numbers available between 75 and 95, and B)It does connect the east and west coasts of the florida peninsula anyway.

Also, what were the answers to the first one?

Duke sounds like he basicly got it right...

Ok so next question or what?
