  The 287 pages of main road maps are at the large scale of 3.3 miles to 1 inch (Scottish Islands at 6.7 miles to 1 inch), and include speed-camera locations. The maps clearly mark service areas, roundabouts and multi-level junctions, and in rural areas distinguish between roads above and below 4 metres wide - a boon for drivers of wide vehicles. For leisure users, scenic routes are highlighted, and the maps show upland and highland areas as well as National and Forest Parks, and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Long-distance footpaths, viewpoints, beaches, golf courses, campsites and caravan sites are clearly shown. The atlas also includes route-planning maps and 21 extra-detailed town and city-centre plans with indexes.
