Motorways merging near Belfast
Motorways merging near Belfast
The efficiency of the landscaping (seen in J3478 : Motorway gantry sign near Belfast) and the flat surroundings prevent a proper shot of the merger of the M2 and the M5. The three southbound lanes of the former are in the foreground. The two lanes of the M5, coming in from Rushpark, are between the grass and the crash barrier (middle). The motorway drops a lane approaching the Fortwilliam junction J3477 : The M2 at Fortwilliam off-slip and gains it again once past the on-slip. The lanes then continue as described in J3478 : Motorway gantry sign, Belfast (2).
