Restoration of Droitwich Barge Canal

The line of the canal is seen in front of the trees on the right. The sheet piling marks one edge. The concrete slab indicates the tunnel under the A449. This has been one major civil engineering project. The locals will be very glad when both carriageways of the A449 are restored. The work was for 27 weeks but is subject to some slippage.
