Elevated road and railway, Belfast (3)

Corporation Street, Belfast (3)
See <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/590317'>J3474 : Corporation Street, Belfast (2)</a>. Corporation Street remains closed during the rebuilding of the Belfast sewers. An eerie calm prevails over what was once a street busy with traffic. In the ten minutes I spent here, one pedestrian and four vehicles passed (one had taken the wrong turning). The view is towards Corporation Square at the cross-harbour railway and road <a href='http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4750'>J3474 : Belfast Cross Harbour Links</a>.

WHERE THE M22 DROPS A '2'
The M2 should have continued north from Dunsilly with the M22 as a branch heading west. That section of the M2 was never built (although an all-purpose dual carriageway was - eventually). The M22 is in the foreground and becomes the M2 at the end of the on-slip on the left. The wide central reservation was to allow the two motorways to merge. View to Belfast on 25 September 2006.

The Antrim-Ballymena road
The road between Antrim and Ballymena forms part of the Belfast-Coleraine road. After many years of neglect it was dualled, piecemeal, between 1989 and 2001. It is an all-purpose road with right and �U� turns allowed. This is the view towards Ballymena.

2+1 at Ballynaloob
The Belfast-Coleraine road includes motorway, dual carriageway, relatively modern single carriageway and other . . . This bit of �other� was recently rebuilt as a �2+1� climbing lane. The road here at Ballynaloob was infamous for delays caused by caravans and agricultural machinery on the climb from the Ballycastle Fork. This is the view to Coleraine.

Glarryford Cross - the end of the world?
After a long stretch of motorway and dual carriageway, on the road from Belfast to Coleraine and Ballycastle, Glarryford Cross, is where the end of the world begins. There follows 4.2 miles of road which does not really merit the description �A�. There are plans to dual the road � but not in the immediate future . . . .

Coleraine ring road
The Coleraine ring road takes most through traffic away from the town centre. The section from the Lodge Road to the Strand Road crosses the River Bann by a box-girder bridge called the Sandelford Bridge. This is the view across the bridge to the Strand Road.

The abutment for the new bridge is at lower left. The inside lane is closed to traffic but in use by contractors� vehicles. (The Google map shows this bridge as going under rather than over the motorway).

M2 termporary terminus at Duncrue Street 1973
View south towards the M2's temporary terminus at Duncrue Street shortly before opening in 1973. All 5 lanes turn sharply left ahead and meet Duncrue Street at lights. Evidently the left two lanes are for going 'left' (back the direction you came up Duncrue Street) and the remaining three are for going 'right' and continuing in this direction along Duncrue Street to the city. The extension to York Street was not added for a few more years. Note the traffic light signs.

The M2 at Fortwilliam
The building of the foreshore section of the M2 between Whitla Street, Belfast and Greencastle was a major civil engineering project. It involved reclamation of a large part of Belfast Lough and the transport of more than 4 million tons of fill, by rail, from Magheramorne near Larne. Work started in 1966 with the road opening in 1973. This is the view north from the overbridge at Fortwilliam. The landscaping has taken well although it is hard to hide a motorway! Those with an interest in such things will note the additional hard shoulder on the inside. This section of road carries more than 90,000 vehicles each day.

Hightown Road bridge over M2, Glengormley
To allow the widening of the M2 to 3+2 to 3+3 lanes, the Hightown Road bridge is being rebuilt. The new bridge will also be 3 lanes wide to allow improvements to the local road above. The temporary footbridge is actually a thin sliver of the finished bridge. Taken from the truncated end of Hightown Road.
