View west from Tramway Lane underbridge, 21 October 1996

View west from Tramway Lane underbridge (see all photos of the same view)

This view shows the length of motorway between Tramway Lane (in the foreground) and the A6 Preston Road (in the distance). The road bed has now been formed on this length, and several overhead sign gantries installed. Tramway Lane itself now has tarmac laid on its new course under the motorway, but appears to be closed completely at this stage, perhaps to join the new section to the existing roads at either side.
