The footbridge is being built as a replacement for the existing footbridge http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4172155 which has to go as it is too low for the overhead electrical cables that will later be installed as part of the upgrading of the Paddington to the West railway. In the background is the BMW MINI body plant, which was one of the few parts of the Rover Group deemed worth keeping by the Germans after they gave up trying to make money out of it in 2000.
