british english expression for "highway" motorway..dual carriageway Explanation: In the United Kingdom, unless a route is classified as a motorway, the term which is used for a vehicular highway may be main road, trunk road, 'A' road/'B' road, "'C' road", "unclassified road", or, where appropriate, dual carriageway. However, in the law of England and Wales the term public highway includes all public rights of way regardless of the kind or amount of traffic they allow, including streets and public footpaths for pedestrians.[15] The term also includes bridleways, which are for pedestrians, equestrians, and cyclists, as well as byways open to all traffic (for all of those users, plus vehicular traffic). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highway#United_Kingdom |
