in the direction of Hemel Hempstead. This carriageway is about
3 miles long. You will pass over 5 roundabouts and eventually descend
a hill towards a 6th roundabout. This large roundabout has 6 mini
roundabouts encircling it. As you approach get into the offside
lane and you will see ahead of you a very tall office block which
is the Kodak building.
As you approach take the above roundabout take
a 2 o’clock exit - sign posted Leighton Buzzard the A 4146.
Follow that road which passes over a further three roundabouts
and then meanders off into the country side for another 7 miles.
