Dan’s update this week :

Another 100m of excavation has been completed and we continue to stay on track for our programme.

I drove past at lunchtime and can see that things have moved on while I was away although there seems to be a little standing water in the section just before Rookery that’s been concreted but not yet tarmacked. I’ve asked Dan about this and he thinks it’s probably just a natural part of the process but he’ll report back when the team is onsite on Monday if there’s a problem.

So it looks like they’re on the last leg now ! The end is in sight (literally – you can see the Eastcourt turning ahead) !
I’ve left the Dove House to Rookery section marked as not quite complete because of the water but it looks like a brief finishing off as far as I can see.

Looks like they’re on track or, dare I say it !…. slightly ahead….
