Families living under motorway say they couldn't imagine living anywhere else

Families living under a motorway say they couldn't imagine living anywhere else and for them, the noise is not a problem.

The homes on a street in Port Talbot sit under the busy M4 that stretches from west London to south west Wales. The motorway, which runs over the town on 45ft-high concrete pillars, is known locally as "road on top of the town" after the giant flyover was built in 1966.

While the living situation may be some people's idea of hell, current residents say it has never been a negative thing. Joanna Care lives in the house she was brought up in with her husband Ritchie and their four-month old daughter Evelyn, reports WalesOnline.
