A quick shot of the North side works from a moving train on a mobile :)

I was up early with the kids and noticed these fellows already working, rather them than me!

Also I went up the Scott Monument for the first time since living here (a long time now). Got all 3 bridges in (just about)

Not many pics recently but some of the road sections have gone on today, I missed it as I was at work but this shot shows the addition to the left. It's hard to see from this angle but if you compare it to something like this shot (different section) you can kind of see what they've done.

I'm just asking if i can share some pics from someone else who got some good shots of them going on.

First posts updated with a new static pic, but I also took a little trip today...lots of photos to sort through but here's an idea of where I went and what view I had...

Couple of pics I took today from the north side. Not really adding much to what's been posted before apart from a slightly different angle :p

It looks like they are building sections of bridge deck on shore, ready to slide out. If so, that's going to be something to see!

Thanks for keeping us updated with pictures.

They are built on shore then will be barged out to be lifted, there are a couple of pics further up of them being lifted.

It's good to see up close isn't it bluecube :)

Pretty good time lapse here!

Saw a road section being lifted as I came home from work tonight so took a couple of pics. The white cables (rods?) are what's holding up the road sections, as you can see there are a lot more holes to be filled!
A couple more pics are on flickr.
