Clerk Maxwell Road, Cambridge
12th February 2005

This small road was built in the 1990s along a line that had earlier been earmarked for a western trunk road link (before the M11 was proposed). It looks hugely over-engineered for its present use (two little culs-des-sacs) but will probably one day be the backbone of the University's West Cambridge site.
