Stanworth rock cutting, view east (see all photos of the same view)

The rock cutting is now complete and the road bed has been created through it; one carriageway now also has one of its initial layers of tarmac in situ. In the distance, a short break in the carriageway just before Stanworth Viaduct marks the transition between the two contracts.
