Gorton Brook culvert, view east, 16 October 1995

Gorton Brook culvert, view east (see all photos of the same view)

The underbridge at Gorton Brook is complete; now a black waterproofing membrane is being fitted ahead of it being covered by earth to form an embankment. Beyond, two facing slopes of the motorway embankment are complete and have already been grassed over. The embankment between them is not yet to full height in the middle; new material to add to it has arrived and is piled up in the centre.

What's new

Hello, here's my ridiculous side project

An introduction to what I write, and why I write it, and where my strange new road sign simulator fits in to all this.

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.

The Ringways Map is here

The wait is over! The full map of the Ringways, London’s unbuilt urban motorway network, is now online. Not even the system's planners had anything like this.

Mistakes

Making road signs is a tricky business, but fortunately the professionals who design them get it right. Usually.
