| | SABRE - Road Lists - Roads by 10 - A449 |
 | | A high proportion of this road is dual carriageway, but the local authority have seen fit to make it a very frustrating one, as one lane is continually marked out, and covered in red tarmac in order to enable better access to side roads at the expense of progress on the main route. |
 | | The A449 between the A40 and M4 was built as a concrete road and my memories of my student days (late 80s) is that they were always digging the road up - I think there was a long term maintenance programme to reconstruct the road. |
 | | The road terminates at Junction 24 of the M4 underneath the imposing Celtic Manor Resort, where there is also access to the A48 and to the A455. |
