Motorway gantry sign
A gantry spanning the motorway with blue overhead signs indicating two lanes exiting and two continuing ahead, and the following text.
Left-hand two lanes destinations: A1 Newcastle; Gateshead .
Right-hand two lanes destinations: Tyne Tunnel; South Shields A194(M) .
Junction number: 65.
Three lanes widen to four and we arrive at the highest numbered junction on the UK motorway network. 65 is the end of the line for the A1(M) - it's back to the green signs as we hit the Western Bypass.
