M61 interchange, view north (see all photos of the same view)
Piers for the long viaduct across the junction are now beginning to take shape, and half of the future roundabout is not just built but in service. The part nearest the camera was part of the original M61 junction 9 and has been retained. In the distance, the new Brindle Road bridge over the M61 is nearing completion; its opening will allow the existing bridge to be demolished and the north side of the roundabout to be built.

What's new
Grand openings
Our much-loved Opening Booklets section has two new publications for you to explore, and we’re making some overdue changes to make them easier to find and easier to read.
Silver bullet
The Silvertown Tunnel is finally open for business. One question remains: what’s it for?
Skid Risk, Accident, Fog
For the first time, we can share pictures of the pioneering experiment that lit up the Worcestershire countryside with enormous signs 61 years ago.
Have you seen...
M25 Orbital Motorway
The M25 is either one of the greatest transport achievements of the 20th century or one of Britain's largest planning failures, depending on which way you look at it. This booklet takes the former view, celebrating the completion of the circuit in 1986.
