Bamber Bridge roundabout, view south (see all photos of the same view)

Bamber Bridge roundabout has been completed for some time; now the terminal roundabout beyond it is also looking more or less finished. It will shortly be opened to traffic as a diversion route when the south-facing sliproads at M6 junction 29 are closed for reconstruction. At the very bottom of the picture topsoil has been removed where the A6 will be dualled.
