We frequently travel up the A12 between Essex and Suffolk which over the last 10 years has been turning into a 30mph crawl-fest.
It seems that Essex into Suffolk is fine; you can travel on this main trunk road along dual carriageway (and sometimes 3 lanes) for all of it. It is when you get north of Ipswich that it becomes a joke - almost as if the council ran out of money!
I used to travel that bit of road every single day during my youth, and it used to take 40 mins as it was ALL signed as NSL. Now the majority is 50mph with 30mph limits through every single village (population: 3 + 1 dog) with 40mph sections extending either side. We're lucky now if we can do the same run in 1hr 15mins.
