Traffic on temporary bridge during replacement

Image: © David Hawgood Taken: 3 Feb 2008

Two railway bridges on the dual carriageway A40 in Acton are being replaced - see Image for earlier photo and more information. This is Perryn Road bridge, across the London Overground railway. At present there are temporary bridges each for one lane of traffic either side of the original bridge, and pedestrian/cycle bridges hanging outside. The original westbound carriageways have one lane each way at present, the original eastbound carriageways are not in use while the bridge below them is replaced. Lots of traffic cones, and rather confusing for traffic, there is a speed limit. Photo from footbridge.
