Widening the M1 JLP01_10_10851
HERTFORDSHIRE. Widening works on the M1 in Hertfordshire, showing slipform paving machines laying the surface of a new road alongside the existing carriageways.
Starting in 1981, widening work was carried out on the M1 between Junctions 5 (South Watford) and Junction 8 (Hemel Hempstead). The aim was to convert the
existing two-lane carriageways from Junctions 5 - 7 and three lane carriageways from Junctions 7 - 8 into three lanes southbound, three lanes northbound from Junctions
5 - 6, and four lanes northbound from Junctions 6 - 8
