View west from Marsh Lane to Sandy Lane, 21 October 1996

View west from Marsh Lane to Sandy Lane (see all photos of the same view)

Marsh Lane bridge, at the bottom, and Sandy Lane, towards the top of the picture, are both in an advanced state of works now, but neither can yet carry traffic, meaning the temporary diversions for both are still blocking the line of the motorway. Between them, though, both carriageways have been built, surfaced and had markings laid in complete isolation.

What's new

The Ringways Map is here

The wait is over! The full map of the Ringways, London’s unbuilt urban motorway network, is now online. Not even the system's planners had anything like this.

The sunlit uplands

On Saturday 31 May something historic happened. The Heads of the Valleys Road was finally complete.
