Chris's British Road Directory (CBRD) is a large user-contributed database of information about the UK's roads.

Contents

[edit] Description

CBRD is dedicated to the study of the road network of the UK. It includes information on many road related topics including: information, maps and pictures of all motorways and many other roads in the UK; historical accounts and details of future construction and improvements; information on the people behind the modern road network and links to road related websites. A CGI simulator program is also available that allows users to travel along a number of recreated roads in the road network.

[edit] History

CBRD was started in 2001 by Chris Marshall, a roads enthusiast, who still maintains the site and has since had many contributions from its users.
