The A12 approaching Woodbridge, seen from the railway The A12 is a very busy road linking London to East Anglia. Starting just north of the Blackwall Tunnel where it connects end on to the A102, it heads north through Bow and Hackney Wick, then northeast through Leyton and Romford, then into Essex, passing Brentwood and Colchester. In Suffolk, it passes Ipswich and Saxmundham, then follows the coast through Lowestoft before entering Norfolk, passing through Gorleston and ending at Great Yarmouth. A significant part of the road from Brentwood to Ipswich, and from Lowestoft to Great Yarmouth is a trunk road.
