	Guardian \| Ode to a road
		Pieter Boogaart is used to eyes glazing over as he explains the subject of his book: the past splendours and present glories of the A272, a road which straggles for 90 miles through Hampshire and Sussex.
		His book lists every road, railway track (current and long gone) and footpath which intersects the A272, and where it is crossed by the Greenwich meridian (near Newick).
		Road engineers insist the A272 is less than a century old, but Mr Boogaart remains true to his quest to prove it is a pilgrim's route from Winchester to Canterbury.

		ROAD SAFETY PANEL ITEM 2 28TH SEPTEMBER 1989 REVISED ORGANISATION OF LOCAL TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND ROAD SAFETY SECTIONS REPORT OF THE COUNTY SURVEYOR 1 Introduction 1.1 Hampshire have for many years directed the majority of their road safety effort towards educating road users and providing publicity on particular aspects of road safety; e.g.
		This work must continue as by far the most important factor in road accidents is human error and it follows, therefore, that improved road user behaviour could ultimately bring about greater reductions in road casualties than can be achieved in any other way.
		Below this level all road safety activities will be combined under the direction of a Section Engineer affording opportunity for a more flexible and co-ordinated deployment of staff resources between the two specialisms.

		This road is notable for having an entire book dedicated to it: "A272: An Ode to a Road" by Pieter Boogaart, which became something of a minor cult and even inspired a TV programme.
		The A272 resumes at a T junction on the A31 to the East of Winchester, heading in a sufficiently different direction that it's difficult to see why they ever used the same number for the two bits.
		We join the A285 (another nice driving road) at a mini-roundabout, and turn left to head through the tiny narrow streets of Petworth (the route is even more convoluted in the other direction), leaving the A283 at another mini roundabout to the North of the town centre.

		Butlers Green Road (A272) is very busy with traffic but it is expected to decrease once the new Haywards Heath bypass has been constructed to divert through-traffic away from the town centre.
		The Committee noted the observations by the PCT that the A272 should become less busy upon completion of the bypass, and that at present there was no vehicular access over the railway line from the south of its proposed neighbourhood to the town centre, although a new road was due to be constructed rectify this.
		There is a pedestrian crossing over the A272 at the end of one of the footpaths from Bolnore Village near to the ‘Brewster’ public house.

		The open views of the countryside as seen from the A272 should be maintained by restricting development which would cut off the existing long views to the ridges on either side of the valley.
		The A272 trunk road, which runs east and west through the valley is now both a servant and master of the community.
		Visual traffic calming on principal roads is essential to maintain the rural ambiance and as far as possible road surfacing, markings and signs should be in keeping with the rural environment.

		The A272 actually carries on along the South Downs for many miles beyond Petersfield, but it is the section from Winchester to Petersfield that is well known far and wide as being driver heaven.
		The road is about 20 miles long with a good surface and it has everything: high viewpoints, deep valleys, long enticing downhill straights where licence sapping ton plus speeds are well within reach, long sweeping bends, shorter challenging overtaking straights and multiple switchback chicanes.
		The road winds and twists then, suddenly, we are over a crest and there is what looks like a MILE of Roman-straight road heading downhill in front of us.

		The Winchester incidents are interesting in that they all centred around one woman, a Mrs Bowles, who had suffered so many poltergeist and similar incidents occurring around her, over the years, that she and her family treated them as part of the normal way of things.
		In the first of these UFO incidents, in November 1976, the car she and a Mr Pratt were travelling in was 'jerked' across the road and onto the opposite verge, where a 'spacecraft' and then a man-like figure appeared.
		A section of the A272 road aligned on this second ley, and both leys passed through modern 'trig-points' (small concrete pillars used in map-survey work), which were built by the Ordnance Survey Service at the highest points in each area - another correlation with Watkins' formulae for leys.

		Today's tailer has a literary ring to it, but while a congested road is not everyone's idea of poetry in motion, it didn't stop Dutchman Pieter Boogaart writing a 214-page book about his favourite stretch of tarmac.
		Boogaart, 55, took 10 years to research the epic "Ode to a Road" and spent all his holidays walking, cycling or driving on the 90-mile A272 road through the southern English counties of Hampshire and Sussex.
		The A272 is a case in point," Boogaart, a language teacher, was quoted as saying by Britain's top-selling Sun tabloid on Thursday.
