A49 underbridge, view north, 29 April 1996

A49 underbridge, view north (see all photos of the same view)

The bridge over the A49 is now substantially complete; at the far end, waterproofing can be seen against the vertical walls where the earth embankment has not yet been piled against it. In the foreground, work is happening at pace to complete the westbound carriageway over the bridge, which will be needed as a diversion route in the near future. It will carry traffic while the far side of the bridge remains unfinished.

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.

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.

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.

Above the M8

Go to Glasgow and it's almost inevitable that you'll use the M8. The views of the city surrounding it are really quite unique.
