M61 interchange and Brindle Road overbridge, view south, 3 April 1995

M61 interchange and Brindle Road overbridge, view south (see all photos of the same view)

The new Brindle Road bridge, at the bottom of the picture, has its deck in place, but work remains to be done. Completion of this bridge at an early stage of the project is important to allow the existing Brindle Road bridge, in the middle of the picture and crossing the M61 at an angle, to be demolished. That, in turn, will allow a bridge to be built in its place that will carry the north side of the new roundabout at the M61/M65 interchange.

Skid Risk, Accident, Fog

For the first time, we can share pictures of the pioneering experiment that lit up the Worcestershire countryside with enormous signs 61 years ago.

All change

In July 2024, a new Government entered office with a very different set of priorities. What does it mean for a faltering roads programme?

A century of motorways

It's 100 years since the opening of the world's first motorway, the Autostrada from Milan to the Lakes.
