As part of the construction phase of HS2, a temporary bridge has been installed across the A4421 at Newton Purcell in Buckinghamshire. The bridge enables contractors to go about their work without interfering with the public roads. The rather utilitarian bridge has simply been dropped onto the previous GCR embankments and brickwork. To the immediate left is one of the many, now empty, buildings that have been compulsorily purchased by HS2, a process that has caused so much upset and angst.
