A49 underbridge, view west (see all photos of the same view)
One carriageway of the new motorway has been in use for some time now, as part of the diversion route between the M6 and A6, but the change in this picture since October is that the other carriageways are now also surfaced and marked. A sign gantry has been erected and posts for other signs can be seen on the right.
