Secrets of The Motorway - M32

#motorway #infrastructure #m32
If you live in Bristol, you'll know all about the M32 motorway that carves it's way into the city centre. It seems to be packed into as tight a space as possible and somehow doesn't really seem to offer much of a solution when it comes to Bristol's transport needs.
But that's boring so I'll be making a few stops along this short motorway to take in some of the sights and landmarks that can be found along the M32. Old "Mental hospitals" for children, radio towers, anti aircraft artillery... it's quite a mix of subjects this week!
In this series we aim to explore what our motorway network is hiding. As we drive along at 70mph..ish...we simply just wouldn't be aware of what we're missing. This series aims to uncover some of the hidden secrets our motorways have to offer.

[@crazyrocketguy4687]

People watch this for the same reason why people watch Geoff Marshall or Jay Forman; random and fascinating things to know about the infrastructure you use on a daily basis. Its the kind of stuff that you would probably never know otherwise.

7:13 Made my heart drop, the graffiti on the house in the background is DJ Derek. I lived and worked in a pub in the centre of Bristol for a number of years and DJ Derek was a regular of mine. Lovely, lovely man. I had moved away from Bristol a few months earlier and heard about him being missing in the news. RIP Derek. Had so many good chats with him, it's great to see Bristol remembering him the way he deserved.

[@southcalder]

I love Brizzle, but I hate the M32. Half assed doesn’t begin to describe it. It doesn’t have many junctions, but somehow they managed to put them as close together as possible in two groups. Also, that odd layout at the very end of the motorway/A4032 only dates from the mid 00s. Originally the route ended at a traffic light controlled T-junction on the A4044 roughly where the Superdry store is in the Cabot Circus shopping mall. The entire road was rerouted when the shopping mall was built to create extra space for the facility. While it was chaotic during its construction, it has actually improved the traffic flow in the area.

[@richard999]

As a pensioner resident of Bradley Stoke the arrival of the Metrobus was a boon. The junction that is “not a junction” was used accidentally by my other half and she is one of those caught by the camera - luckily, it was right at the beginning of this system so she just got a “slap on the wrist”. It is still quite easy to take this slip road by accident thinking it was Junction 1 since apart from signage it really looks like a normal junction.

[@joebryant5722]

Without doubt, the progression of this series is now easily (what use to be) terrestrial T.V standard and represents why I choose my 'channel' watching on KZbin. My actual T.V has sat in the corner, not switched on, for over a year and is now a dark flat paperweight. Boy am glad TV's got thinner and easier to push into forgotten corners.

[@geocoupe8144]

Ontario Canada. There is a area of land by the Great Lake Erie, Point Pelee park, that has a lot of deer. Each year there is a culling of the deer. Animal activists stopped this. As there are no predators, deer population exploded. A few winters later, half of the herd starved to death. This is what happens when idiots get their way. The activists still wanted the culling stopped. Now the park is closed by the Caldwell First Nation every few years to cull the herd. The activists still try to stop it, but Point Pelee is Caldwell traditional hunting grounds. A group of people who has been together for a few decades think they know more than a group of people who have been together for almost 1,000 years. So fuch off is right.

Haha Grundy... now there is a name from the past. In the early 90's, as a tape op, I used to see that logo every day at the end of transmitting episodes of Neighbours on BBC1. The main thing I recall about those Grundy re-editted neighbours tapes was that the tech standards were always all over the place... so on the whole I think you might be doing yourself down! Your video was fascinating as always. Every week I look forward to seeing the next installment.

Bus priority at signalled junctions (I assume that's what he was referring to with buses "making a nuisance of themselves" lol) is great! Very effective and actually quite simple in practice. There's so much more going on behind the scenes at signalled junctions than people would ever realise. Would be interesting to see how Bristol have set theirs up as you can opt for varying levels of damage depending on how much you want to prioritise buses. Stuff like bus-specific infrastructure (eg the bus-only junction) is the most effective but massively expensive by comparison.

[@PingoUTFG]

they didn't i don't think, i regularly use the metrobus, its shittier than the average route

[@I_Don_t_want_a_handle]

Brissle's expense whores never utilize much brain. When they put the bus lane on Fishponds road the buses got significantly worse. Why? Because they simply moved the problem upstream as well as creating a massive traffic jam from The Causeway all the way into town. Previously, the jam started at Eastville park.

[@DavidRGray]

The large Tesco by Junction 2 is on the sight of Bristol Rovers old ground Eastville, the car park of the said Tesco used to have a floodlight pylon still in its corner for many years after its demolition and was a focal point from the carriage ways.

[@Dan23_7]

Same with Wigan rugby league’s old ground “Central Park” That was demolished and Tesco built on it

[@ashturns61268]

The house was built in 1553 by Sir Richard Berkeley. Rebuilt by Norborne Berkeley, 4th Baron Botetourt circa 1760, it eventually became used as a dower house by the dukes of Beaufort at nearby Badminton House. This included Charles Somerset, 4th Duke of Beaufort (the son of Henry Somerset, 2nd Duke of Beaufort) and wife Elizabeth Somerset, Duchess of Beaufort whose daughter's obelisk can be found to this date on the hill she died on from falling off a horse. Dower House is rumoured to be haunted by the ghost of a girl named Elizabeth Somerset, who died in 1760 from injuries sustained after tumbling from her horse. Many visitors have claimed that they have heard galloping hooves as they travel through - although horses haven't been on the grounds for years. Steve England, a conservation educator and RHS horticulturist, states that “I’ve heard the sound of thumping hooves behind me on numerous occasions, once so vividly I jumped out of the way, but there was nothing there." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dower_House,_Stoke_Park

Really good research as a Bristolian I tip my hat to you. Also as an editor on countyasylums I can say you covered the mental defectives angle really well. One thing you did miss maybe was the site of the old football ground (now ikea) and the river froome that runs by it - when levels rise it’s diverted through the northern storm water drain - you can see the sluice gates on the left hand side before J2 if heading out on M32. One of the biggest and longest drains in country and helps keep Bristol flood free since 1960s (mostly….)

The second viaduct in your film was not part of the Clifton extension railway but part of the old LMS route to Bath green park and then on to the S&D.

[@alunrundle162]

The M32 also affected railways. When it was being built, it was on the listings as 'Parkway'. They created an out of the city station to get the workers to work. They called it "Bristol Parkway". Now, most out of town stations on the network that have large car parks are called Parkway Stations. (Didcot, Tiverton, etc...)

[@fluxington]

That's when good neighbours, become good friends.

[@wattster71]

Used to see/hear that road everyday as a kid before moving to Australia. The only time you didn't hear it was when Concorde (built about 3 miles away from the M32, not too far away from the Dower House) was on a test flight and drowned it out! The 5 bucks is a bribe to never use the instrumental Neighbours theme again! Love yer work!

[@AutoShenanigans]

Up at Filton that would have been. Bribe accepted and I shall never use neighbours again, many thanks for showing me the way :D Straya or Bristol... tough choice.

[@richeharrison]

Thanks for finally covering this stretch that I have to find a way of traversing over (or under at junction 2) almost every day. The route cuts large parts of the city in half as efficiently as a giant wall, and underpasses or pedestrian bridges are all too infrequent. Bonus fun fact: Purdown tower is also known to us Bristolians as the UFO spaceport. You missed the fact it also runs over the River Frome for quite a long distance.

[@Jim-Scott]

Another motorway I use! Once a year to go to a Tug of War competition down near Bristol airport. After 200 miles from the east coast those few miles of the M32 go a bit unnoticed, and then it just fizzles out and you're trying to decide which lane to get in to find the airport. I normally get it wrong.

[@PillSharks]

Probably best to carry on and go south on M5 and come off at Gordano Services and make your way to the airport from that point.. that way you will miss the shithole of Bristol and it’s ridiculous traffic!

[@stegra5960]

The inner ring (circuit) road was notable for including a dual carriageway section straight through the middle of Queen Square leaving a statue marooned in the central reservation. Hard to believe when you see that area today.

[@mittfh]

You certainly found a lot of interesting content to make up for the lack of length of the motorway! Perhaps one day, you'll do the madness of Birmingham's little motorway spur: the A38(M) - trenches, viaducts, pasta and a now disused vinegar pipeline - plus the continuation of the madness as the A38(not M) weaves its way through and under the city before dumping you unceremoniously at a giant traffic light crossroads on the Southern edge of the centre.

[@ulazygit]

Here we go again! Another motorway used quite extensively back in the mid noughties when working in Bristol rationalising and reorganising property/accommodation for the company I worked for. Always wondered about the ‘house’ (Dower) overlooking the motorway near J2 - thought the owner might have been a tad miffed at a motorway being built in his front garden … maybe even becoming mentally defective - and deciding to downsize into a very reasonably priced 3 bed terrace house in Napier Road … to get away from it all …

[@DeepSpaceNetwork]

That bus junction has ZERO signage. I’ve been caught by it. Now they send you a warning but if you do it again they slap you with a fine. But the thing is, if you take the wrong exit at the previous roundabout (which is common because it seems everyone in Bristol got their license in a McDonald’s happy meal) you instinctively take that exit to come back since the next one is literally miles away.

[@silvertrident3103]

The roundabout at the M4 was still there for a long time after opening, it was made into a tear-drop in the 90s/00s when the lights were added to aid flow off the M4.

[@stevekelly5166]

And if you look at the overhead shot, you can see new shiny armco (exit of M4 west as well) where nobheads still drive into it at motorcways speeds. Coming off the M32, they used to get as high as the M4. Those were the days.

[@ajuk1]

You didn't mention that the name Parkway Comes from Bristol Parkway however it was called that not because it was a park and ride station, but because the first section of the M32 was called The Parkway because it went through park land and they name just stuck. Also surprised you didn't mention the River Frome and the Stormwater Interceptor.

Pudown Tower. You needed a B&W photo when it was covered in microwave dishes to give it justice. Just past J2 used to be the home to Bristol Rovers where my dad would drag my in the early 70's. Now IKEA. Whilst the gasworks have gone, (Rover's fans weren't gasheads for nothing, the 6 high pressure gas bullets are still there. And did you notice the barbed wire fencing on the bridge (Heath House Lane). Believe it was installed to stop mentally unstable locals jumping onto the M32 and coming through your windscreen. At 8m44s, you get it all wrong. The outer circuit road you then call the outer ring road, doesn't help the scales fo your maps change. Well the outer on the B&W map was built as the A4074(R). I remember being taken there for a school trip to watch the tractors in the early 70's,. What a trip! 🙂They have recently added to it since in a fashion, and you can get all the way around to the A370. Still laughed and learnt some stuff I didn't know. I know it is 2022, but along the lane that passes over the M32 with the barbed wire fence... there is a building on Google Maps titlted, Bristol North Learnnig Difficulties Team. Maybe the fence is still needed. And don't mention the Metrobus to people who still live there. Could have mentioned Noel Edmunds used to drive a black cab in the bus lanes with a mannequin called Candice in the back to get to work on time - untol he got caught.

The sign for it points at a 90 degree angle for the motorist, and once you've seen it you're already trapped into the bus lane. Of course, the road is clearly marked, right before the traffic lights, and nothing ever covers up the road just in front of traffic lights does it. Very anti-car council.
