the shared part of adsl where bandwidth is shared is symmetrical.

the limitation on adsl is down to the local loop tech which incidently is not shared.
there is also sdsl which uses a different local loop tech that supplies same speeds up and down.

The LLU backhauls for isp's like sky and BE, exchange VP's for isps using BT wholesale as far as I know are fully symmetrical same capacity up and down.
