A307 road

The A307 road is a 13.2 miles (21.2 km) road runs through SW London and NW Surrey. It is primary at the north-east end but for the most part is a non-primary A-Road which has been superseded by the new alignments of the Portsmouth Road.

Route

Richmond Upon Thames

It begins at the junction with the A205 South Circular Road beside Kew Green (51°28′58″N 0°17′13″W / 51.4827°N 0.2869°W / 51.4827; -0.2869 (A307 road (northern end))), where it is named Kew Road. It then runs towards Richmond upon Thames or Richmond, London, through the west of Kew. At the junction with the A316 in Richmond it becomes a non-primary A-road through the town centre then heads through Petersham where for fewer than 100 metres it kinks west and then travels south through Ham. A B-class road, the B353, leaves the A307 in Kew and runs around the town centre and up Richmond Hill and by-passing Richmond, before rejoining the A307 at Petersham.

Kingston Upon Thames

It bisects the north of the town before becoming the western half of the one-way system in Kingston upon Thames. Here it is briefly merged with the A308. It leads south to the northern end of the A240, for 200m travels west to the River Thames, and resuming south becomes at last the old version of the Portsmouth Road (which is also its name here). It runs next to the River Thames, heading through Surbiton. It passes a junction with the A243, shortly before exiting the borough at Seething Wells there next to Long Ditton.
