  • Police tape and a makeshift sign warn of a lane closure due to flooding in the village of Lavant, West Sussex. Afternoon sunshine illuminates the roughly-made board with red painted letters which says 'Road Closed'. The rippling water is less than a foot deep and we can see the broken white centre line beneath the surface but the linked posts that border the village green are also submerged. Even so, traffic is prohibited from passing through there for the risk of grounding or damaging engines. Lavant is a village just north of the city of Chichester. It is made up of two parts, Mid Lavant and East Lavant, and takes its name from the River Lavant which flows from East Dean. This area has been prone to flooding for several years and houses around the rising rivers can be blighted with insurance companies refusing future cover.

  • The A30 highway runs deep into the South-West of England - from Exeter in the county of Devon to Penzance in the narrow peninsular of Cornwall. On certain dates in the calendar routes like this, near the Cornish town of Bodmin, England, come to a standstill from the huge volume of cars and private vehicles, all heading down to costal resorts and better weather. We see here a huge tailback of traffic that is queueing along one side of the British dual-carriageway (two lanes in each direction) from close-up  to the distance down and up a natural hill in this undulating landscape. The cars have edged forward are nose to tail for hours in summer heatwave and tempers fray, children arguing in the back and an otherwise relaxed holiday mood suddenly goes bad.

  • After heavy rain and the subsequent flooding, two lone canoeists paddle down the centre of the A27 near Chichester, West Sussex. The Dual carriageway has been completely submerged to approximately 1.5 metres and only the road sign with its directional arrow is visible above the surface which is rippling in a faint breeze. The men in red and yellow kayaks look inexperienced in boating activities and their clothing is not suitable for water sports. Even so, they are speeding down the highway that is otherwise empty of all other vehicles and they have the water and space to themselves without the fear of collision.

  • Moving fast past a farmhouse building on a busy UK A road, unseen traffic leaves its light trails on an otherwise dark winter night near the giant DIRFT warehouse logistics park in Daventry, Northamptonshire England. Some rooms are lit in this remote residence which show signs of occupation. Red tail lights from cars, lorries and trucks streak by with tall traces of container traffic leaves light on the picture, diagonally leaving their mark. It is a very busy highway on which to own a home but this infrastructure is a vital route that keeps Britain's logistics moving across the country 24/7.

Many countries today use the French term “allée” – generally translated as “avenue” in English – to designate a road lined with trees which have been deliberately planted at regular intervals on either side of the roadway, be it a pathway in a park, an urban thoroughfare or a country road. These routes from the 17th century lead to the birth of the “boulevard” – a term which had its origins in military engineering but now took on a new meaning, designating a tree-lined promenade around the outskirts of a town or city.

  • On Sydney Street, SW3, a busy thoroughfare through the smart borough of Kensington and Chelsea, we see a build-up of rush-hour traffic where cars are queued up with their headlights on, waiting for lights to change. Also waiting, at a bus stop, is a single-decker bus on its way from south London. Opposite is a rarer sight, an old classic Routemaster bus about to pull away from its stop too. Note that driving is on the left-hand side, unlike other countries. In the distance are the tall towers of the Victoria and Albert Museum on the Brompton Road and on the right are the very expensive terraced houses whose balconies are edged with plants and railings. The camera's time-exposure has blurred many vehicles that have passed-by only registering their rear lights..

  • A young woman begs on London Bridge, sitting on the pavement to read her newspaper as a cleaning contractor sucks up litter around her. The girl doesn't move from her place on the pavement at the northern end of the crossing across the Thames, a busy thoroughfare taking commuters to the southern side mainline station - and a favoured spot for beggars asking for loose change. She reads the latest edition of the Evening Standard, London's free tabloid newspaper. Passing her is the workman who points his large vacuum tube that removes street rubbish.
