Bonus bank holiday update from Shepreth Junction, where there was some work in progress today. There is a new concrete pad just to the east and south of the junction. There is also an area of disturbed ballast just to the north of the junction - possibly a cable crossing? I have also included...

Bonus Monday morning update as I happened to be walking over the busway bridge again. Not much change since Saturday, but the masts to the north have had their verticals erected and are presumably going to be brought into service very soon. To the south the flat area has been revealed as a...

A few photos taken from the busway bridge from this morning. Looks like there is another possession this weekend. To the south of the bridge work is ongoing on the OHLE again. Since last week a couple of flat areas have been created to the west of the track, and the old masts have been removed...

Lots happening today…. Edit: It was very politely pointed out that uploading lots of images with no description was not the most inclusive approach. The attached pictures show the situation on Sunday afternoon as seen from the Guided Busway and Addenbrookes road bridges. Looking south from...

I shall try to take some more photos on Sunday afternoon…

Some photos from yesterday. Work now extends to the east of the line and to the north of the busway bridge on the west side of the line.

Big expansion of the site this week. The fenced off area now covers about half of the country park. Looks like the earthworks are getting more extensive and quite a bit of soil has been relocated to level the ground.

Couple of photos from yesterday. These are taken from the guided busway bridge looking south. Looks like clearance, earthworks, etc continue…

Here are a couple of photos from earlier today. The site has expanded over the last week and some of the vegetation has started to be cleared.

The previous pictures don’t do a good job of showing how close the station will be to the hospitals and biomedical campus. Hopefully this one will clarify the situation. You can see the large Astra Zeneca office on far left (glass building) and Royal Papworth (blue building) are just across the...

I went for a walk in the country park next to the site today. Here are some photos of the compound and access road.
