The central cable-stayed portion of the second Severn Crossing
Rathmorrissy Interchange
New A30
Looking west along the new road on Aug 2 1999. It opened on Aug 6, around 7am, from M5 to just west of B3177, where it crossed the old. They were going flat out to finish this, much earlier than scheduled, because Prescott had decided to get it open before the total eclipse the following week.
