Editing M11 motorway (section)

==Route==
The M11 starts in South Woodford in northeast London, just north of Redbridge Roundabout, crosses the [[North Circular]] (A406) at junction 4, it then heads [[Points of the compass|NNE]], passing east of [[Loughton]] and [[Theydon Bois]] as well as [[Epping Forest]], meeting the [[M25 motorway]] at junction 6, and then veering approximately north, passing to the east of [[Harlow]]. The M11 gives access to [[Bishop's Stortford]] and the motorway's only [[Birchanger Green services|service station]] via junction 8. This is followed immediately by the recently constructed junction 8A, which provides a free-flow link to the improved [[A120 road|A120]] that links to [[London Stansted Airport|Stansted Airport]]. The M11 then traverses part of [[Cambridgeshire]], meeting a spur for the [[A11 road (England)|A11]] at junction 9, Stump Cross, and then finally ends at junction 14, the Girton Interchange, with the road continuing through the junction and becoming the [[A14 road (England)|A14]], which continues the route on to [[Huntingdon]] and the north.

The motorway starts with two lanes southbound and three northbound; then, north of [[Woodford Bridge]], both directions have three lanes, a layout that continues up to junction 8A, except for a brief two-lane section at junction 6, beneath the M25. From junction 8 the motorway has two lanes in both directions all the way to junction 14 where the motorway terminates. The motorway is illuminated at the southern terminus near junction 4, at junction 6 (the M25 interchange), and also at the approach to junction 8/8A (Stansted Airport/Bishop's Stortford), and then at the northern terminus at junction 14, for the A14. All four of these sections use modern [[Sodium vapor lamp|high-pressure sodium]] (SON) lighting. The older, yellow, low-pressure sodium (SOX) lighting originally used at junctions 4 and 6 was replaced in 2005. The M11 junctions 1, 2 and 3 do not exist; see the History section below for explanation.
