Burning questions for the Northern Irish motorist. Why did we only recently get motorway services recently? Will the A5 ever be finished? Will there be a bridge to Scotland?

In this episode we are joined by the foremost authority on the Northern Irish road network, author and self confessed public highway enthusiast Wesley Johnston. Less about cars in this show, and more about the roads we use them on.

You may know Wesley from is amazing NI Roads website, http://www.wesleyjohnston.com/roads, our independent voice on where and why roads are built, or as in the case of the A5, continual hiatus. Wesley takes us through what went before, from the grand plans from the 60s that never came to fruition, to the new Narrow Water Bridge that is well underway. Ross reminds us of the dirt bike over the top of Toome Bypass bridge
