Moved here from Dorset 36 years ago, best decision I ever made. My daughters were born here and had degree of freedom not found in many places these days. I am able to look at that view everyday come rain or shine when I walk the dog and no matter the weather it’s always beautiful. In fact as we drive down over the top of Grizedale and Millom is laid out before you on a glorious summer evening it takes your breath away my kids wait for me to say “ look at that, that’s why I made your dad move us here” I say it so often it’s become a family joke 😊

Looking good

About time they finished the work, liked this video

Commentary please!!!

Lovely scenery, thanks for posting.

This town is fortunate in that it has a bypass unlike poor old Towcester in Northamptonshire, an old market town, where the A5 still runs through the centre of town. When the M1 is closed all the traffic north and southbound clogs up the town.

Love the ride through Midland Country-side

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN BAD DRIVERS CAN'T SLOW DOWN WHEN TOWING ANYTHING!!!

Never ever seen something come detached from a tow ball. I bet it wasn’t on properly.

That caravan's a keeper - great homing instincts!

You can see from the close up at the end that the caravan is still attached to the tow ball. The entire towbar has become detatched from the car. Breakaway cable was probably attached to the towbar so the emergency brake never activated. If the car had stopped 2 metres further forward, the caravan would have continued into the bushes with minimal damage.

He almost got away with it, if only he had stopped a bit further along. Caravan didn't have enough room to pull in.

starting to take shape now,thanks for the updated videos keep em coming

What was the reason that the caravan got detached from the vehicle?

🤯

There’s another Range Rover towing to hope he doesn’t have the same luck😅

I don't trust the ' new ' style of stabilising ball hitch , I use the ' old fashioned ' style ball , with a U J locking device which locks the cup onto the shaft of the tow ball plus a seperate stabilising bar , and I've replaced the steel rope with a heavy grade chain on the emergency brake , my caravan is an old heavy Tabert and I pull a car trailer also , neither of which I want to lose . Problem often is that people use their caravans once or twice per year and don't bother with simple safety checks before they leave home

Safety cable didn’t look right, certainly failed in a big way if it was attached, and then to let it just roll into your car

Its amazing (or worrying) how long the caravan carried on moving, even tho brakes were applied after it detached.

Great thanks enjoyed the music too.

I was just thinking about this lol good video

A relaxing drive with nice music. Great view from that height, thanks

I live in Newquay and at Trevemper, they've just taken down the temporary traffic 🚦 lights.

This is nice 🙂

Can't see the point of all the cones on the Chiverton section westbound. The road looks to be complete. If anything they seem to be causing an obstruction with traffic joining from the new chiverton junction. I hadn't realised how far away from finishing large sections of the road. Thanks for the vids - great update.

Jesus was born in Wales

I actually don't mind the driving noise

I live here, nice to see it immortalised

God's own country, lived here all my 52 years, have fished many many times from that location and surrounding area, have dug worm and gathered crabs on the sands, a great place to live and one of the best views in the country Imo

Oddly enough I walked across that viaduct today for the first time ever. The traffic at the roundabout at Cyfarthfa was backing up because the road to Dowlais Top was closed again, so I thought "why not." First...

Great video as always. I look forward to these every month. Although I do regularly drive the route myself sometimes it's nice to see the progress on video in a way that's difficult to do while driving.

Well done Millom stood your ground on a certain subject.

Why is this 12 months late why are we so bad at building infrastructure

You should have gone up the new A465 onslip at the rhigos towards Neath

Unbelievable! Still loads more to do? nowhere near finished, looks like next Xmas is your time for a first full drive?

Excellent as usual,thanks

I didn't realise how much could change in just over 3 weeks, Nice video

I am not sure as to what stop you're referring to in this clip. Only stop i can see is on Finkle st. The rest of the clip is just a drive out in the country side, and i am a bus driver.

Lived here and loved it

Thanks for these video, very interesting to follow

was it on sunday morning. I didn't see such a empty roads looong time :)

As it's the main road through Cornwall, I think the A30 should be dual carriageway all the way to Penzance.

The YT algorithm offered this view to me first before I was able to watch the Front View. Good work, but as someone who's fairly local (South Petherton) it's difficult to orientate myself with this view - your Front View video is much easier to understand.

You were lucky with the traffic!

Another case of classic civil servant - Department of Transport thinking, rather than just widening the road by a few feet to create a proper dual carriageway and future proof the road, lets save a few pounds, make it less safe and then spend millions thirty years later rectifying the mistake, Illchester bypass is another classic mistake.

One ☝️ day ALL roads will be like this, Oh I’ve just seen a pig 🐖 fly over.

This makes a before and after, i remember my family and I used to travel on this road as a shortcut to the midlands from treherbert back before even construction began on the tredegar to brynmawr and gilwern sections

When the current upgrade between Chiverton to Carland Cross is completed the A30 will be dual carriageway from Junction 31 on the M5 to this point (Camborne West Junction). Come peak holiday season I can envisage traffic volumes constrained into this narrowing section causing significant tailbacks. I also predict big problems at St Erth where new (2023?) traffic lights have been installed?

Some cheap properties in Millom. Surrounding areas look good.

It will be fantastic when its done, now all they have to do is sort out the Ilchester By-Pass and make it a proper dual carriageway, put some flyovers on the various A303 roundabouts and finally sort out Stonehenge. Should be done by the end of the century.
