Contract interface, view east, 20 July 1995

Contract interface, view east (see all photos of the same view)

Stanworth rock cutting is visible in the middle of the picture. Progress here appears to be slow, with a pit of broken rock in the middle of the cutting attended to by a group of construction vehicles. In the distance, beyond the contract boundary, a range of mobile cranes have arrived, and it looks like the environmental protestors are no longer present.
