Junction 14: Walking, Driving, Eating, and the Relational in Motorway Services in Britain and Ireland


Willow G. Mullins (University of Edinburgh)

The final presentation is “Junction 14: Walking, Driving, Eating, and the Relational in Motorway Services in Britain and Ireland” It examines British high-end roadside services to suggest a different approach to the time of road travel and eating along the way, not any less focused on the destination than its American counterparts, but more willing perhaps to linger along the way.
