M61 interchange, view west (see all photos of the same view)

The long viaduct over the interchange is well advanced, with sections of deck in place. At the bottom left more steel spans have arrived, which must be for the bridge that will carry the roundabout over the M61, just out of shot to the right. Work on that bridge is yet to start.
