A4174 road

The A4174 is a major road in England which runs around the northern and eastern edge of Bristol, mainly in South Gloucestershire, and through the southern suburbs of Bristol. When it was first conceived it was planned to circle the whole of Bristol, and is referred to as the "Bristol Ring Road" on road signs and by many local people, but this is technically inaccurate, as the road does not circle the whole city, instead covering roughly half of the route.
