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

Work to build the second bridge at Riley Green continue, with foundations in place for the second abutment. On the left of the picture, the A675 will be diverted slightly to the left of its current line, and a cutting has now been formed for this, with the road bed being prepared.
