Транс-Пеннин – дорога в Северной Англии, другие дороги имеют обозначение A66.
Trans Pennine A road in Northern England
other roads designated A66
A66 – главная дорога в Северной Англии, которая частично проходит по трассе древнеримской дороги от Скотч-Корнер до Пенрита. Она начинается к востоку от Миддлсбро в Северном Йоркшире и заканчивается в Уоркинтоне, Камбрия. Дорога постепенно модернизируется с добавлением участков с раздельными проезжими частями, однако всё ещё содержит участки с односторонним движением. Планируется полностью расширить A66 до двух полос движения между Скотч-Корнер и Пенритом, и в марте 2024 года был объявлен проект стоимостью 1,3 миллиарда фунтов стерлингов.
The A66 is a major road in Northern England, which in part follows the course of the Roman road from Scotch Corner to Penrith. It runs from east of Middlesbrough in North Yorkshire to Workington in Cumbria. The road has been progressively improved with dual carriageway sections, but with stretches of single carriageway road. The road is set to be completely dualled between Scotch Corner and Penrith, with a £1.3 billion scheme being announced in March 2024.
Маршрут
От восточного окончания между Редкаром и Миддлсбро дорога проходит мимо Стоктона-на-Тис и Дарлингтона, преимущественно как двухполосная дорога с разделительной полосой и однополосная дорога после Дарлингтона, становясь автомагистралью A66(M) незадолго до съезда 57 на автомагистраль A1(M). Она следует маршруту A1(M) на юг до Скоч-Корнер, откуда продолжается на запад через Пеннинские горы, мимо Броу, Эпплби, Киркби-Тор, Темпл-Соверби и Пенрита, пока не достигнет съезда 40 автомагистрали M6 на развязке Скирсгилл, где транспорт, направляющийся в Западную Шотландию, поворачивает на северную M6. A66 продолжается мимо Бленкатры к Кесвику и Кокермуту и далее через северные части Озерного края, прежде чем прибыть в прибрежный город Уоркингтон. Между Кесвиком и Кокермутом вдоль северной части озера Бассентвейт есть короткий участок дороги с разделительной полосой. Восточный участок следует по прямой линии бывшей железной дороги Кокермут – Кесвик – Пенрит, а западный участок имеет многочисленные изгибы, подъемы и спуски. Западный участок был закрыт из-за наводнения в декабре 2015 года, а при повторном открытии в мае 2016 года был окончательно сужен до одной полосы. На этом участке действует ограничение скорости, контролируемое камерами фиксации средней скорости.
From its eastern terminus between Redcar and Middlesbrough it runs past Stockton on Tees and Darlington mainly as two lane dual carriageway and single carriageway past Darlington, becoming motorway standard as the A66(M) shortly before meeting junction 57 of the A1(M). It shares the A1(M) route south to Scotch Corner, from where it continues west across the Pennines, past Brough, Appleby, Kirkby Thore, Temple Sowerby and Penrith until it reaches Junction 40 of the M6 motorway at Skirsgill Interchange, where traffic going towards Western Scotland turns onto the northbound M6. The A66 continues past Blencathra to Keswick and Cockermouth and on through the northern reaches of the Lake District before arriving at the coastal town of Workington. There is a short stretch of dual carriageway along the northern part of Bassenthwaite Lake between Keswick and Cockermouth. Whilst the eastbound section follows the straight line of the disused Cockermouth, Keswick and Penrith Railway, the westbound section has numerous bends with climbs and dips. The westbound section was closed due to flood damage in December 2015 and when it re opened in May 2016 had been permanently reduced to a single lane. This section has a limit monitored by average speed cameras.
История
Когда в 1920-х годах впервые были присвоены номера дорогам, A66 был назначен маршруту между Пенритом и Халлом через Скоч-Корнер и Йорк, преимущественно по трассе бывших римских дорог. Первые три проекта начали строиться в начале 2006 года и были открыты в 2007 и 2008 годах. Планировалось, что к 2011 году будет полностью дублирован весь маршрут между A1(M) и M6, к этому времени также должна была завершиться модернизация A1 до статуса автомагистрали в Скоч-Корнере. После начала строительства нескольких участков было объявлено, что проекты, находящиеся на стадии планирования, не будут реализованы ранее 2016 года. На сайте Агентства автомагистралей указано: «Помимо уже утвержденных, регионы не выявили других крупных проектов для A66, которые бы считались приоритетными для финансирования. Это означает, что в настоящее время маловероятно финансирование каких-либо дополнительных крупных проектов на этом маршруте в течение следующих десяти лет. Однако процесс регионального финансирования будет пересмотрен в будущем, что даст регионам возможность пересмотреть свои приоритеты». В сентябре 2015 года правительство заявило о выделении 500 000 фунтов стерлингов на изучение двух транспанинских маршрутов A66 и A69. Предлагалось, что одна или обе дороги будут полностью дублированы между A1/A1(M) и M6. В следующем году правительство объявило о дублировании A66, но не A69. В марте 2019 года директор проекта Мэтт Таунсенд из Highways England объявил о планах проведения общественных слушаний с мая 2019 года, в рамках которых будут представлены планы по расходованию 500 миллионов фунтов стерлингов на завершение дублирования участка Транспаннин, а также на улучшение транспортных развязок M6 и A1(M). В марте 2024 года министр транспорта Марк Харпер одобрил проект стоимостью 1,3 миллиарда фунтов стерлингов на полное дублирование A66 между Скоч-Корнером и Пенритом. Работы по проекту начнутся во второй половине 2024 года.
When road numbers were first designated in the 1920s, the A66 was assigned to the route between Penrith and Hull via Scotch Corner and York, mainly along former Roman roads. The first three projects began construction in early 2006 and opened in 2007 and 2008. The whole route between the A1(M) and M6 was due to be dualled by 2011, by which time the upgrade of the A1 to motorway status at Scotch Corner was planned to be complete. After the construction of several sections commenced, it was announced that those schemes currently in the planning phase would not go ahead until 2016 at the earliest. The Highways Agency website states "Other than those already committed, the Regions did not identify any other major schemes for the A66 as high priorities to receive funding. This means that there is currently no likelihood of any additional major schemes on this route being funded within the next ten year period. However the Regional Funding Allocation process will be reviewed in due course and this will give an opportunity for the Regions to revise their priorities." In September 2015, the government said that £500,000 would be invested into the study of the two Trans Pennine routes of the A66 and the A69. The proposal would be for one or even both roads to be dualled wholly between the A1/A1(M) and the M6. The following year the government announced that the A66 would be dualled, but not the A69. In March 2019, project director Matt Townsend from Highways England announced plans for a public consultation from May 2019, in which it would present its plans for a £500 million spend to complete dualling the Trans Pennine section, together with improvements at the M6 and A1(M) interchanges. In March 2024, Transport Secretary Mark Harper approved a £1.3 billion scheme to dual the A66 in its entirety between Scotch Corner and Penrith. Work would begin on the scheme in the latter half of 2024.

Безопасность
На участке дороги между Скотч-Корнер и Пенрит за десять лет до 2002 года произошло 70 смертельных случаев, что превышало средний показатель по стране для дорог с односторонним движением. На дороге между Боузом и Броу были установлены снежные ворота. Этот участок представляет собой высокогорный маршрут через перевал Стенмор, достигающий высоты 1450 футов (442 м) и склонный к сильным снегопадам зимой. Оба комплекта ворот оборудованы площадками для разворота, позволяющими транспортным средствам менять направление движения.
The section of road between Scotch Corner and Penrith accounted for 70 deaths over ten years up until 2002, which was above the national average for single lane carriageways. Snow gates were installed on the road between Bowes and Brough. This section is the moorland route over Stainmore summit which reaches a height of 1450 feet (442 m) is prone to heavy snow in the winter. Both sets of gates have turnaround facilities to allow all traffic to change direction.
Аварии и инциденты
24 мая 2010 года на трассе A66 вблизи Кесвика произошла авария с автобусом, в результате которой погибли три человека, четверо получили тяжелые ранения, а около 30 – травмы различной степени тяжести. Авария произошла, когда автомобиль столкнулся с автобусом, перевозившим детей из школы Кесвика домой, на трассе A66 в Камбрии.
2010 A66 Keswick coach accident on 24 May 2010, three people were killed, four were seriously injured and approximately 30 people sustained less severe injuries after a car collided with a coach carrying children home from Keswick School on the A66 in Cumbria.
А66 (М)
A66(M) — это боковая ветвь от A1(M) на 57-й развязке. Она была открыта в 1965 году вместе с A1(M) как часть объездной автомагистрали Дарлингтона. Доступ к ней возможен только для транспорта, движущегося в северном направлении по A1(M), и имеет съезд на этот маршрут только в южном направлении.
The A66(M) is a spur from the A1(M) at Junction 57. It was opened in 1965 along with the A1(M) as part of the Darlington by pass motorway. It can be accessed only by northbound traffic on the A1(M) and has an exit to this route southbound only.
