M40 Motorway

The M40 is a motorway connecting London and Birmingham; part of this road forms a section of the unsigned European route E05. It provides an alternative route from Southern England to the West Midlands, to the M1 and the A34. DescriptionThe motorway is dual three lanes except for Junction 1A to J3, which is dual four lanes, a short section past J4, which is dual two lanes, and a short section past J9, two lanes southbound. The motorway has four service areas: Beaconsfield services (off J2), operated by Extra MSA, which are also accessible from the A355; Oxford services (off J8A and accessible from J8 and the A418), which are operated by Welcome Break; Cherwell Valley services (off J10, A43), which are operated by Moto; and Warwick services (between J12 and J13), consisting of two sites mirroring each other without a connection, which are operated by Welcome Break. In 2011 several of the company logos on the signs for these services were incorrect.
