	M1 Motorway - Northern Ireland Roads Site
		The M1 is the longest motorway in Northern Ireland and the oldest in all Ireland with the first section opening in 1962.
		The M1 was born out of a plan announced by the Northern Ireland government in 1946 to improve the deteriorating traffic problems in Belfast by constructing a set of three "approach roads" to speed motorists from the areas around the city into the centre.
		The offslip to this roundabout marks the original motorway, with the now-demolished southbound carriageway suggested by the shape of the roundabout.

	ABD - Submission for raising the motorway speed limit
		The perception that motorways were dangerous undoubtedly sowed the seed that ultimately led to the introduction of the 70 mph speed limit.
		The motorway network expanded during the first half of the 1960s and, by the end of 1965, totalled 629 km in length2.
		In 1999, the total volume of motorway traffic by cars, taxis and light vans (which are subject to the same speed limit as cars) amounted to 71.8 billion vehicle-kilometres1.

	M1 motorway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The first section of the motorway opened between junction 5 (Watford) and junction 18 (Crick/Rugby) on 2 November 1959 together with the motorway's two spurs, the M10 (from junction 7 to St Albans) and the M45 (from junction 17 to the A45 and Coventry).
		From junction 32, the motorway passes between Sheffield and Rotherham, passes to the west of Barnsley and Wakefield and reaches the original end of the motorway at junction 44 to the east of Leeds.
		When the new section of M1 was completed and opened in 1999, the Leeds South Eastern Motorway section of the M1 was redesignated as the M621 and the junctions were given new numbers (M621 junctions 4 to 7).

	M12 Motorway - Northern Ireland
		In the 1960s the Northern Ireland government decided to build a new city to offset the growing regional dominance of Belfast and to accommodate the growing population.
		The plan was to run a large dual-carriageway (known as the Portadown Urban Motorway, although it was unlikely that it was planned as a true motorway) from Portadown to Lurgan along the route of the railway.
		The M1 was being built to the north of this whole area and it was decided to link the two.

	M12 motorway (Northern Ireland) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The M12 is a 1.5 miles (2.4 km) length of spur motorway in County Armagh, Northern Ireland.
		It leads off the main M1 motorway, to Portadown, part of the conurbation of Portadown-Craigavon-Lurgan, and forms most of the route between junction 11 of the M1 (Ballynacor) and the A3 Northway at Kernan Loop.
		By the early 1960s, the M1 project had been extended further westwards to reach Dungannon, and the M12 was planned to connect Craigavon to the M1.

	CBRD - Motorway Database - M1 (Northern Ireland)
		Completed in the 1960s and not changed much since, the Northern Ireland M1 is a mostly two-lane affair that stretches to nearly 40 miles - the longest stretch of road of this standard in the province.
		Among these are two junctions for the M11, which would have started on the M1, headed around the north of Lisburn, and then crossed it again to go south, and one for the M8, intended as a southern bypass of Belfast.
		Perhaps the most astounding testament to those failed motorway plans is the footnote that the M1 is the only NI motorway that was actually finished to its intended length.

		The M50 motorway is a motorway and National Primary Route in the Republic of Ireland running in a C-shaped ring around the northern, western and southern sides of the capital city, Dublin.
		One end of the route is located north-east of the city, with a connection to the M1 motorway (running north to Belfast).
		Work commenced in early 2006 on upgrading the earlier sections of motorway, with the current grade-separated signal-controlled roundabout interchanges to be replaced with free-flowing "spaghetti junctions", and much of the road to be widened to three lanes in each direction.
