Answer:

Answer 2

Passenger traffic increased rapidly between British cities.

Explanation:

• An A road may be either a fast dual carriageway, or a single carriageway (one lane in either direction). Many A roads are often known as motorways-in some, for example, the A1 north of London is the A1(M). On a map, dual carriageways are marked by a thicker green line than the single carriageways.
• The explanation British roads appear small is that they have been there for several hundred years, maybe perhaps a thousand. In the days of horse transport, they were put down, either a mounted horse or horse-drawn carts, neither of which are especially wide.
