Suffice to say a double-deck flyover was planned for Gants Hill Roundabout on the A12 which nobody thought was a good idea, and as doubts were forming, the material collected here was created and circulated in an attempt to find a solution.<br /> <br /> What makes this a delight are that - as well as all the artists&#039; impressions available at the other file - there are also a collection of general photographs of the Gants Hill area from 1964. These are a joy.<br /> <br /> ==Contents of note==<br /> * A wealth of photographs of Gants Hill in the early 60s, some with bizarre &quot;give way to traffic from right&quot; signs that are non-standard. <br /> * Artists&#039; impressions of the proposed double-deck flyover structure.<br /> * Documents describing other ideas tabled, including a one-way loop for eastbound traffic passing underground to the north of the site, and an underground route for Woodford Avenue around the north, joining the A12 further east, with a single-level flyover for A12 over the roundabout.<br /> <br /> ==Links to other files==<br /> :&#039;&#039;&#039;[[HLG 131/284]]&#039;&#039;&#039; Ilford BC: proposed flyover at Gants. Includes 1 photograph depicting: Photocopies on photographic paper of a proposed fly-over for Gants Hill, London: affected sites and drawings of proposals.
