Love it

Its open

Great video, thanks for sharing. Are you going to upload the Falmouth Beacon DDay flight? Best regards

How many CAA guidelines you trying to break? It's people like you giving professional drone operators a bad name.

As an HGV driver, I remember the old single track road being a 40mph speed limit for us guys and having poor car drivers sat behind us for miles and miles, risking life and limb trying to get past us. I bet many folks don't know planning permission was granted to dual the a30 way back in the 80s. But due to the usual tree huggers, was knocked back time and time again. I often wonder how many injured people or even life's lost, that could have been avoided? It reminds me of the a66 between the a1 and the M6 at penrith. Planning permission was granted for that in the mid sixties and it's STILL no closer to being dualed. Good footage, by the way.

Shockingly short of laybys. And exits. Looks horrible for a new road. Most of it had been upgraded to dual carriageway. They should have made 3 lanes to make it really effective. Look at the near stanstill traffic on one side. No rest stops on either side. This is out of date before it opened.

Never understood why they didn’t just build the M5 to Penzance rather than terminate it at Exeter for traffic to end up using old roads? 🤷‍♂️

Cheers for making and sharing your vids as the project has gone along.

timestamp 11:22 why on earth is there what looks to be a whole lanes qorth of road and narrows again?

let's just hope people on this road can actually cope esp at the slips roads at carland cross which has been ridiculous with the single lanes this week or 2 but on a positive glad cornwall has lovely new dual carriageway no more being stuck behind tractors 😊lol

This is nearing into its completion, now this dual carriageway will run from J31 of the M5 to the loggans moor roundabout.

Hope its all open and two lanes each way not just using one as in video !!

We have waited 60 years for this to happen. The slowest upgrade in British road building.

Two lanes look to be complete in each direction, so why is traffic only able to use one lane?

wow thank you this has helped me a lot next one down along please x

Great video , awful music 😂

Cracking video!! Open on Monday, yeeeahh!!

Fantastic job, hopefully next time you drive along it, you won't have to queue, looks like it's on to open Mon then 👍😄

A long time in coming but it is finally her yippee

Looks brilliant now mate looks like the old a30 in parts will remain closed for several months as its reduced to rubble

Last day of congestion today, hooray!

Whereabouts is car land Cross in relation to the rest of the A30 please? I know the eastern M3 area (near Stonehenge) and the western Yeovil area (by Haynes International Motor Museum) ?

Part of me regrets seeing the old route disappear, kind of liked getting to Carland Cross and knowing I was only half an hour or so from my home town PZ, the single carriageway road was quite enjoyable; that said I never really got caught in a traffic jam on that stretch westbound! Next trip down hopefully after the kids go back to school in September... Interesting juxtaposition of the "Cornish Alps" in the background compared with a 1970 pic I saw yesterday, taken at St Mawgan in which more pyramid like heaps I vaguely recall from that era were visible in the background. Time and excavation (or landscaping?) has softened them quite a lot...

I see videos of road schemes like this and know that local villagers will finally get some peace from congested local roads. An excellent view of Cornwall too - there's more to it than just the coast!

Thanks for the update, fantastic job, soon to be open me thinks 🙏😀

Few weeks ago carland Cross were a mess looks nearly good to open now

So the full weekend closure was to do white lines?

Fantastic upload brother! Next week I reckon we’ll have traffic on it!

Nice video when is your next one

Beautiful music great voice 👍👍👍

Can you please film the new A249 improvements ? Thank you 🙏

Great video, good to see in daylight after delivering asphalt there at night in the 1st week in June.

Great video and music, subscribed! I travel up and down between Bristol and Helston nearly every week for many years, so I’m looking forward to the A30 dual carriageway opening up on this section. The drive through Truro via the A39 is ok but I’m getting curious to see how much time the alternative to bypass Truro takes off my regular journey.

When is the next update coming boss? I’ve heard rumours that they’re opening it on the 17th?

Great vid, seen all the works being done when to see my parents . Needed doing tho . Thank mark

i actually found this very relaxing to watch lol

Terrific music.

Any mid June drone flight update at all? Spoke to the security guy and was told they are trying to get it finished by the end of June

Shows how far off target they are. Its become a embarrassment to Cornwall this project. 8 miles of road, and its going on and on and on with no end in sight.

This has been such a nightmare to drive thru for about two years, I drive to Penzance once a month….i have seen signs saying that the work will be completed in June this year, sorry but I can’t see that completion date…..⛔️🚫🚳❗️

What a Paradox - A Great Feat of Engineering but Such a Scar on the Beautiful Landscape 🥴

When will the a30 be completed

Great video, clearly shows the route and surrounding area to get a better idea of the layout etc. I've added your channel, always good to connect with other drone channels.

Quick question, how did you work with the CAA VLOS rules on this? I was under the impression GVC and A2CofC both still limit you to a max of 500m distance and still require VLOS? I wasn't aware the CAA had addressed BVLOS yet? Are you travelling with the drone or are there edits?

Thank you for making these drone flyby videos of the A30. I worked on the project from July 2022 and June 2023 and love seeing how the project has progressed since I left. It has changed completely.

The last time I was there was 5 years ago just before I moved away from the area. Ahhh, the "fond" memories of many times sitting in traffic jams at the Chiverton roundabout and the Zelah bypass on those stupid short stretches where the 3 lanes went back to 2 😖 Just out of interest, what drone are you using?

Hate the tiny forests left very close to the roads, which are prisons to wildlife. All as that does is encourage wildlife which is in danger of being flattened.

Is it an upgrade or brand new road ? Where is it

Thanks for the post!
