M6 interchange, view west (see all photos of the same view)

This view shows progress on the viaduct across the M6 very clearly. In some places deck sections have yet to be lifted into place between the steel beams; elsewhere concrete deck has been poured. In the foreground, concrete pouring can be seen in action.
