M61 interchange and Brindle Road overbridge, view south (see all photos of the same view)
Construction of the new bridge to carry the roundabout continues, having only started in the last three months. Until then the old Brindle Road bridge stood in the way. Underneath, the M61 is restricted to two lanes in each direction, and has been for many months; the northbound carriageway (on the right) will actually never operate with three lanes again and will be repainted with only two as part of this project.

London, in a new light
It was specially designed never to be noticed. And now it's disappearing, nobody has noticed its absence. It's London's own bespoke street light.
Have you seen...
M1 Architecture
The most unique motorway in Britain owes its identity to its fifties architecture. Much of it is in danger of being removed or irreperably altered. This page documents it in detail.
