		It runs from a junction with the M1 Motorway south east of Rugby and ends with a junction with the A45[?] road south west of Rugby.
		The motorway is around 10 miles (16 Kilometres) long and is one of the least busy parts of the British motorway system.

	The Motorway Archive. M1 London - Yorkshire Motorway, M10 and M45
		The 74 miles of the London - Birmingham motorway to Crick constituted the "first full scale motorway to be constructed" in the UK and was in fact the southern part of the London-Yorkshire motorway, the M1.
		North of Beechtrees to Pepperstock, the motorway was also designed for the Ministry by Hertfordshire County Council and was also of concrete construction, but the carriageway was dual three-lane as is the rest of the motorway.
		Bridges over the motorway were to a standard design and although they provoked some criticism of their appearance, perhaps because of the relatively 'heavy’ design from using reinforced concrete, this died down with time.

	The Motorway Archive. The London - Birmingham Motorway M1/M45. Luton to Crick to Dunchurch
		The M1 was constructed as a dual 3-lane motorway throughout this length, whereas the M45 was dual 2-lane.
		The M45 was constructed without a junction in the John Laing contract because immediately to the west of the end of the contract the Dunchurch By-pass under construction for Warwickshire County Council terminated in an at-grade roundabout on the A45.
		The three bridges carrying railways over the road were supported on abutments and columns built by Laings under the motorway contract, but the superstructures were of steel designed by British Rail and built by their contractor by traditional railway methods, including the use of veteran steam operated cranes running on the rail tracks.

		This is partly due to a greater concern about the adverse effects on the environment of new road construction and increased traffic, and because it has become evident that even a very large road-building programme would not keep pace with the expected increase in traffic in both urban and rural areas.
		Rising levels of congestion on motorways throughout countries that have built them are reducing many of the time-saving and efficiency benefits that the motorways were originally designed to provide.
		Today, Britain’s motorways comprise less than 1 per cent of the total road network—yet they carry 16.5 per cent of all traffic and 32 per cent of goods traffic.

	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.

	Rural Roads - The M45
		Whilst not the first motorway to be opened in Britain, the M45's place in our motorway heritage is assured because it was built as part of the first stage of the M1 London to Birmingham Motorway, opening on the same day as the M1 in November 1959.
		Originally intended to be the Birmingham spur off the proposed London to Yorkshire Motorway, the motorway no longer fulfils that purpose - a role instead taken by the M6 a few miles to the north.
		However, on the M45, the original bridges, designed by Sir Owen Williams and Partners, can be seen in all their glory.

		The M45 sport seats are contoured to provide lateral support all the way up to the shoulder area—which is where you really need it in spirited driving.
		One way to characterize the M45 is that, of the genuinely sporty sedans in the $50,000 range, it is the most British in its outlook.
		The suspension provides plenty of isolation from the bumps and bruises of the motorway beneath, and the V-8 has enough torque and low enough gearing so power is ample, but always in the background.

		The M45 Motorway is to be designated as a heritage motorway, Transport Secretary Alistair Darling has announced.
		When first opened, the M45 was one of Britain's busiest roads, but the opening of the M6 a few miles to the north in 1972 meant that most London to Birmingham traffic no longer uses the M45.
		It is a single carriageway link from the M60 to an industrial area on the outskirts of Manchester and is due to be downgraded as part of the M60 widening.

		The M1 was the first long-distance motorway to be built in the United Kingdom, and the first section that opened stretched from Berrygrove (near the current J5) to Crick.
		To distribute the traffic onto the local road network at each end, two spur motorways were built: the M45 Dunchurch bypass at the northern end, and the M10 St Albans bypass at the southern end.
		Instead, the motorway was generally aligned to follow the ups and downs of the surrounding fields.

	Jamaica Gleaner - Drug mules - Thursday \| April 18, 2002
		The picture that emerges is that she had gone to England as a drug mule, died after she got there from the drug overdose and evidently was dumped from a vehicle onto the motorway presumably by those who had arranged for her to embark on this journey of death.
		If her identity is not established, and it appears that care was taken to ensure that this would be difficult to do, she will be buried as a 'Jane Doe' in an unmarked grave somewhere in Northamptonshire, unmourned and without the presence of those she knew.
		Clearly the crackdown is producing results and fewer of the drug mules are making the flight to Britain to be dumped on busy motorways when they die from drug overdose, or convicted and sent to British prisons in the populations of which Jamaican women are already over-represented.

	SABRE - Forums - View topic - Motorway numbering
		The zones for motorways are different from the zones for A- and B-roads (in England and Wales at least).
		For the most part, the motorways were built to serve the industrial conurbations, whereas the low-numbered A-roads tend to serve the older settlements such as cathedral cities.
		M45 was also mooted, as a shortening of M405 (motorways weren't to have three digits).
