The A35 in the New Forest
The 'A35' is a
trunk road in southern
England, that runs from
Honiton in
Devon to
Southampton in
Hampshire.
Route of Road
Beginning in Honiton off the
A30 road, the A35 travels in a roughly south-easterly direction past
Axminster,
Charmouth and
Bridport. After Bridport, there is a two-mile section of
dual carriageway, before it reaches its
bypass around
Dorchester. After Dorchester, there is approximately eight miles of dual carriageway, including the
Puddletown bypass, until it reaches its
roundabout with the
A31 road at
Bere Regis. Continuing roughly south-easterly still, it becomes dual carriageway again near
Upton, and continues past
Poole. It returns to single carriageway through
Bournemouth, and then has a dual carriageway bypass of
Christchurch. It then heads in a north-easterly direction through the
New Forest, passing through the town of
Lyndhurst where it meets the
A337 road (to
Lymington). It continues through
Ashurst and
Totton, meeting the
A36 road and
M27 motorway at
grade separated junctions. It then turns north-east, acting as the western part of Southampton's ring road, with the
A27 road making up the eastern part. It terminates at
Swaythling, on the northern outskirts of Southampton.
Within Bournemouth, it has been diverted north of the shopping centre of
Boscombe; much of the former road is pedestrianised.
