I'm taking it that this is the route for the proposal

http://g.co/maps/4tmtv

I dunno if it'll happen but it'd be great if it did.

yes it would be good but it will never happen as it encompasses the A68.

this on the other hand would be perfecto.

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?saddr=...via=3&t=m&z=11

ok so its 19 miles long but there is no large towns or major roads that can't be bypassed easily. and to top it off it's just off the M74 so easy logistics.

This will be good for the bike scene, the wee town n villages will benefit aswell if everyone there is well behaved. Road racing is becoming more and more popular especially with the likes of guy Martin, John McGuinness, etc
Thumbs up from me!

I can't believe they would plan it for Jedburgh and not include any of the Bonchester Bridge road!
