History
Most of the roads were originally planned in 1920 as a relief road connecting London to the South West of England. Construction began in 1928 and the road, along with the Chiswick Bridge and Twickenham, was opened in 1933. The section between Hanworth and Sunbury is part of the older route; before being expanded and renamed Country Way in the 1970s, this section has the name Twickenham Road (between Apex Corner and Bear Road) and Sunbury Road (between Bear Road and Kempton Park). A pub once stood adjacent to the A316 in Hanworth called "Brown Bear"; it was destroyed in 1973 when roads were made into three lanes and overpasses with limited access at the Crossroads of Bear Road/Hanworth Road.
The A316 was the first road in England to have a stationary traffic control camera on it, when, on May 22, 1992, then Traffic Police officer Roger Reynolds turned on the first camera, Gatso, near Twickenham Bridge facing the westbound road.
Fatal incident
Adjacent to the road at Old Deer Park is a memorial bench for a local girl, Nicola Regan, who died after being bullied on a stretch of road in front of a group of friends on March 22, 1991.
On 6 October 1997, the A316 at Hanworth was the site of one of the most famous incidents recorded on the highways in England when Toby Exley, a chef from Teddington, and his colleague Karen Martin, of Twickenham, both died when their car, the Ford Fiesta, collided with a central reservation after being hit by a Vauxhall Senator who drove that away. The driver of Senator Vauxhall, Jason Humble, of the Cove in Hampshire, was eventually arrested, found guilty in Old Bailey on 2 April 1998 for murder and sentenced to 12 years in prison.
