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

Foundations for the long viaduct across the M6 are now taking shape, though actual construction work still cannot begin until the old Cuerden footbridge across the M6 is demolished. To the right, two sets of piers have been completed for the bridge carrying the south side of the roundabout over the M6, and in the bottom right corner, steelwork has arrived to form the bridge span.

On Saturday 31 May something historic happened. The Heads of the Valleys Road was finally complete.

Scammonden Bridge

If you've ever been on the M62 across the Pennines, you'll know the one. It's the huge arched bridge 120ft above the road. And this is what it's like when you're standing on top of it!
