Brimmicroft overbridge, view north west (see all photos of the same view)

This high-level view shows the motorway west from Brimmicroft (at the bottom) through to almost the M61. The footbridge at Brimmicroft also carries a piped watercourse across the motorway, where the new road cuts through well below the water level. The pipeline for this appears to be visible across the bridge.
