definitive-list-of-regional-ie-long-distance

Definitive* list of regional (i.e. long-distance) destinations which are permitted to be shown in UPPERCASE on motorway signs.

For some reason seeing ‘The NORTH’ etc has always struck me as oddly idiosyncratic and somewhat amusing.

From The Design and Use of Directional Informatory Signs (PDF)

* NORTH EAST is also allowed, but only to disambiguate when NORTH WEST is also used.
