A449 ROAD

The A449 in South Wales

The 'A449' is a major road in the United Kingdom. It runs north from junction 24 of the M4 motorway at Newport in south Wales to join with the A40 between Abergavenny and Monmouth. The A449 reappears at Ross-on-Wye at its junction with the A40 just west of the M50 motorway (junction 4) and continues roughly north-east to Ledbury, Malvern, Worcester, then turns northwards to Kidderminster and Wolverhampton before meeting the M6 motorway at junction 13, and finally terminating in Stafford.
This dual carriageway road was built to near motorway standards, and was intended to ease the strain on the Severn Bridge, providing an alternative route to the Midlands.
