Sandy Lane overbridge, view west (see all photos of the same view)

The scene around Sandy Lane shows earthworks mostly complete, with cutting slopes now grassed over, but work on the bridge itself has not progressed much in the last six months. Presumably construction effort is being concentrated elsewhere.

What's new

Hello, here's my ridiculous side project

An introduction to what I write, and why I write it, and where my strange new road sign simulator fits in to all this.

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.

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.
