A motorway is the British term for a high speed divided highway with limited access points on which only certain forms of motor traffic are permitted, analagous to a US freeway, a German Autobahn, French autoroute, etc[1]. As of 31 March 2004, the Motorway network in England totalled 4,818 miles (7,754 km); this figure does not include Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland[2].
