Sunday 21st April

Work to install the overhead gantries is well under way.  The drainage work has advanced since last week and more site tidying up is being carried out.

The new culvert is now longer and is advancing towards the viaduct.

Looking back the other way,  the River Hiz is behind the fence where a new outfall will be constructed

Up on the triangle of higher ground, an imposter claiming to be the Flying Scotsman about to pass under the viaduct heading north.

Earth moving machinery engaged in tidying the site.

A number of marker posts have appeared presumably marking out the level of the ground when completed.

Looking from the end of Wilbury Way, a number of gantries awaiting installation.

A closer look at one with the piled mounting visible above the embankment on the other side.

More gantries spaced out around the chord.

Looking at the apex of the two lines.  One new gantry has been erected next to the cabinet.  They start on the far side then switch briefly to this side until they are past the the accommodation bridge.  Then for the rest of the embankment and viaduct they are on the far side.

Piles visible either side of the bridge.

A closer look at one. Now with the better weather the embankment is becoming greener.

Looking around towards the junction.  One of the many CCTV cameras can be seen above the bridge.
The work to install the piling and gantries has moved ahead remarkably quickly.  More later this week if there is anything worthwhile to report.
