Riley Green interchange, view west, 2 June 1997

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

From the west, the roadway across Riley Green Interchange can be seen. A road surface is in place, but the final wearing course hasn't been laid yet. On the sliproads, lighting columns have been erected. One of them, on the right, still has two protective bands of white padding around it that would have protected it in transit.

What's new

Signs and sensibility

The one great attempt to make London’s streets logical - and how one retired chauffeur’s favourite routes changed the way you get around the capital.

A bridge under troubled bridges

A bridge that was ruined by another bridge, and a type of highway planning beyond any of the UK’s worst nightmares.

The monster seen from below

What might it have been like to stand in one spot and witness the arrival, and the uncertainty, of plans for an urban motorway in West London?
