The highest part of the bridge has a red warning light attached. Note the bridge is actually curved which doesn't show in this photo.
Central station has had its upper steelwork installed. The design doesn't seem great at keeping the rain out. The white objects are the tops of the escalators that are covered in plastic.
Viewed from the terminal side this will be the route from the terminal to the station. To the left is the service road. When finished passengers heading for the drop off zone will still have to follow the route under the footbridge and then turn sharp left followed after 100m by a sharp right turn.
The bigger picture. The concrete structure closest to the camera will not normally have passenger access. Note the grey painted concrete wall that is being dug out.
Finally to the left of the coach will be the new access route for authorised vehicles only including coach and taxi rank access.
excellent photos and updates as always LTNman. Appreciated
