Their new roads, relief roads and junctions are drawn in red over a detailed Ordnance Survey base, from long routes on the western and eastern edges of the town to new links and junctions threaded through the historic centre. The proposals were fiercely debated, and most of the inner relief roads were never built, which is a large part of why the medieval street pattern survives today. Reproduced by Entwistle Thorpe \u0026amp; Co., it is a substantial and readable record of a turning point in the city's planning.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371660890459,"sku":"P-7-028560","price":54.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-7-028560a_2546e7a8-d45e-4d63-862f-cdc1c3142e6f.jpg?v=1792148861","url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/fr\/products\/cambridge-general-map-of-road-proposals-william-holford-myles-wright-1950-p-7-028560","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
