Riley Green interchange, view south east, 3 April 1995

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

The new line of the A675, on the left, is clearly seen here, replacing the original course of the road which will be dug up and returned to farmland. Towards the top of the picture, traffic is temporarily routed around a short section of the future large roundabout and onto a short temporary length of road that ties in to the A674.

The M4 into London was one of the UK's earliest and most ambitious motorway projects. It was bold, pioneering... and almost instantly regretted.

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.
