[Talk-GB] Made-up motorway junction names

I doubt the names are totally fictional.

Most of the junctions and roundabouts in these parts have local names, 
well-known to local motorists and often used in local radio traffic 
reports, but appear on no map.

Also some roads - a stretch of the B4194 locally has been known all my 
life as "the switchback" by all and sundry, used on local radio, in 
police accident reports and local newspapers. But it has no official 
standing.

Can these be mapped as name:local= ?

Martin.
