Another walk round the site last Friday 16 April. Activity continues, with removal of the tip material nearing completion. Ground stabilisation continues (above is one of the holes into which cement has been pumped; the pipe is about 4 inches in diameter). Some drainage work is under way. Most significantly, work is under way on bringing the ground levels between Bridge Street and the A61 up to formation, ready for the new road. I followed two lorries off the site, curious. Full of spoil material, they headed for the M1 and then north from junction 29...
All the images made on that day contain no aircraft con trails in the sky. Aircraft were grounded because of the Iceland volcano. On the site, dust was now a problem, with road sweepers damping down dust on the roads.
I dropped in on the former Biwater site. It's now designated a quarry, since they're taking coal and sandstone out. I'm hoping to do a proper visit later this week.
