Work begins on Wednesday 5 November on the demolition of the old Mossband Viaduct which carried the A74 over the West Coast railway line. Thousands of tonnes of concrete and steel will be removed from over and near the railway line by giant multi wheeled transporters. The A74 is being upgraded to motorway standard through the £174 million M6 Carlisle to Guards Mill improvement. [from John Robin]
