That's good news, no more roundabouts and trucks that only just reach 50kph before slowing for the next one. Saying that, we have had some good meals in past years when we have stopped in places like Gace and Sees.

You won't need to stop, Bob - you'll be in LM that much quicker.

Yes

Time saved: don't know - have always been a Pompey man so I dont know the road either before or after

Cost of road:  Many millions of euros - probably most of it paid for by us

Cost to use:  Insignificant, I should imagine, in costs of the whole trip

Not only does the A28 connect to Le Mans. For those of us who travel further south it will connect Lemans to the N10 at Potiers , whuch in theory should knock off at least 2 hours travelling time down to Cognac and beyond from Calais

I assume you mean the A28 extension from Ecommoy to Tours, Wishy.  I didn't know that bit was under construction.  When is that due to open?

I'm buying another one!  Its dragging the 'van through Rouen thats the problem, but it does look like a major A28 bypass is planned.  They just need a bridge over the Seine
