The motorway predominantly passes through rural areas but at Junction 11 it passes through the urban areas of Luton and Dunstable. There are 55 structures, 20 overbridges, 17 underbridges and 18 culverts along this stretch of motorway; and b) provision of approximately 4.5km of D2(AP) link road connecting the M1 from a new Junction 11A to the A5, north of Dunstable at its junction with the A505.
