A refuse truck climbing up the Bann Road. Crossing the Bann is a big moment, but the problem with crossing big rivers is the sure knowledge that the other side is uphill - with the Sperrins getting ever closer. This is a pinchpoint for traffic because of the Bann crossing and there are some pretty heavy duty cameras pointed at the road.
