[OT] there's a section of the westbound M6 just east of Kilbeggan that has incorrect levels as well.
When you drive along there the curve has a far steeper "lean" than all the other curves on the motorway, great for 180 kmh driving I would imagine.
[/OT]

The "lean" is called super-elevation and is sometimes used if there is no vertical curve for the drainage of surface water from the road. I know the part of the motorway you are on about, but I'd say this was intentional not a mistake.

Are you cycling 58km every day, nothing seems to move on the project without out getting a shot. - Great work BTW.

Maybe we should start a GoFundMe for a new Bike for M17....
