Should add that this is provisional. If something else happens then it might be postponed. the slides have already been on the forum at https://birminghamhistory.co.uk/forum/index.php?threads/spaghetti-junction.39338/

Well I know a guy who was involved in it being built good Irish Lad still working in construction, he does piling now for Balfor Beatie. He told me it was no surprise when they had to start doing repairs some years ago but he would not enlighten me to why. Just hope he done a better job of the piling on Canary Wharf.
