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

The shape of the new interchange is beginning to emerge, and the form of the motorway ahead to the terminal roundabout is now clear. In the middle of the picture, steelwork forming the spans of the viaduct over the M6 has reached about halfway along the structure.

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.
