The earthworks carrying the road along this stretch are the most advanced part of the work visible here. In the middle distance, towards the canal bridge, one of the embankment slopes has actually now been grassed over, suggesting it is finished completely - seemingly the first on the whole stretch to be done.

What's new

Grand openings
Our much-loved Opening Booklets section has two new publications for you to explore, and we’re making some overdue changes to make them easier to find and easier to read.

Have you seen...
M25 Orbital Motorway
The M25 is either one of the greatest transport achievements of the 20th century or one of Britain's largest planning failures, depending on which way you look at it. This booklet takes the former view, celebrating the completion of the circuit in 1986.
