The road in the foreground is the A48, Southern Distributor Road. The original road here was turned in to a dual carriageway by constructing a second carriageway on the landward side of the road on stilts along the river bank. For a similar view taken in 1996 see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5213396 .
