This is the Wednesday (yesterday) view of the Bradford road bridge. I'm not sure what work is in progress. But clear that there is no new bridge deck yet.

just watch for the glass in the top of the wall. You can get a decent view just stood in the mini NCP carpark too. To add to this, as I drove past today. The north side Iron bridge deck is removed but not yet replaced. Traffic on Bradford Road is single file still. There is now more of a...

one of early maps in the consultations had a detailed drawing of overhead wire supports right into the Huddersfield tunnels past Springwood junction. Of course, that was a couple of years ago and plans change...

Correct that the centre stone span is the current running lines. It’s easy to see on Google earth. I’m not sure on the plan. But it isn't 1 or 2. The North side span is already removed. There are no further scheduled road closures, so I think it's a while before a new span or before the...

More Huddersfield pictures from yesterday. https://share.icloud.com/photos/086TBZ_wRgL0BOhD6at9H7NaA I’m travelling with almost no connectivity so somebody is welcome to resize those and post up here. When they lifted the bridge, a big chunk of the top of the wall came loose. Left hand...

Not sure what is happening in the station. New barriers around platform 8. Removing an iron span over Bradford Road. There is one each side and I’m not sure if they are doing one side or both sides. I‘m also not sure if the new deck is being put in this weekend or not. I think it will...

Here’s a map where it looks like what you describe is possible. between Stocksmoor and Huddersfield. somebody could maybe confirm if a second train can leave Stocksmoor to Huddersfield, once the first one has cleared Lockwood. From...

yes. I had a photo of the sign and it said 2/4 (meaning 2nd April), which confused me. Post edited.

So that is John William Street, and I don't believe it is happening next weekend. There is work happening there, but no signs of impending road closure. I think it is the Bradford Road Bridge that is being done next weekend. The matrix sign says closed from 28 March 22:30 until 2 April...

I agree. I wondered if moving the pointwork to the other end of the viaduct would also fix the problem, and extend the loop in the process. I agree. Better do it soon before they decide to build houses on it.

And therefore a making it too confusing is a valid way out. Just make it so confusing, you can't be arsed and just travel a different way. Like the people on my LNER train a few weeks ago who had paid for weekend first before, so sat in first class on a Thursday thinking it was a standard...

It is worth noting that Penistone is on a mega growth spurt at the moment. There are houses going up everywhere. Just one site has 400 new homes being built right now. The place is completely unrecognisable from 15 years ago. (I was chatting to an old friend who has lived in Penistone for 70...

Yesterday (sunday), in Huddersfield they were piling/drilling under the Bradford Road arch of the viaduct. Also looks like the parapets/sidewall have been removed and rebuilt on each side the span. This arch is part stonework and part Iron span. I’m guessing they are prepping to eventually...

There are very smart temporary toilet facilities at the Manchester end of platform 4. See the photo in post #7546. Also I presume the toilets on platform 1 are still open? The buffet has been shut for a year. The waiting room and toilets happened in the last few weeks. I believe the plan...

Mossley is really 2 places with 2 village centres. Top Mossley and Bottom Mossley. The current station is in Bottom Mossley. With a footbridge and new footpath in the right place the new station will be logically better for Top Mossley and still in visible view from the existing station. 4...

At Huddersfield. The buffet building is fenced in. There is a lot of timber between plaforms 1 and 4 (this isn’t new) Lots of activity in the car park behind the station - I think the main current work is bridge abutments for Widening over John William Street There are very smart temporary...

I don’t know. I didn’t stay to watch them work. Depends what you mean by prep. I don’t think any track or buildings affected yet. Looks like a new bridge supports under construction. There are compounds all along the viaduct across the ring road. There has been extensive digging next to...

some pictures around Huddersfield station on Wednesday

At Huddersfield. Loads of signage about the car park being closed. I’ve not actually seen the car park. The viaduct has lots of digging happening next to where it hits the ground. Around the bottom of the pillars. All the vegetation along the back of Halfords has been cleared out.

His company accounts are public. https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/09591000 Take a look through. Your guesses are not unreasonable. He will have more viewers than many bbc tv programs. So I’m pretty sure he does other work too. Session musician or...
