Colas Microsurfacing team at work
The truck carries a cargo of water and aggregate that can be spread at about 2-3 mph on a straight and level road covering cracks and pot holes leaving a surface that should be good for up to 8-10 years.

Street trees in Sheffield are under threat
But some are to be allowed to survive. These two seem to have found a grassy corner where they can avoid the chop, although a vehicle recently backed into the one on the right to give it some rough pruning.

We three trees are not staying long
Sheffield City Council's 5 year scheme to resurface most roads and pavements calls for street trees to be assessed. These three cherries are growing too big for their location, their trunks now occupying more than half the width of the pavement. They're going to have to go. Replacements will be planted about 50-100 yards further along the road on a grassy corner.
In 25 years the improvement may be appreciated.

Cutting by Twentywell Lane at north entrance to Bradway Tunnel
Twentywell Lane now runs to the right of this picture. Originally, before the railway cutting was dug up to Bradway Tunnel, it followed the line shown here. The course of the old road was revealed after all vegetation was removed from the rocky sides to reduce the risk to trains running below. The sides of the cutting are now covered by a strong wire mesh netting.
