An awful lot of roads near me seem to have "site entrance signs" to

Is this really the HS2 starting?

Most roads around Hemsworth on the A628 and lots of ones on the A6021

Any ideas other than HS2? Some of them look a long way from the HS2
proposed route (although that could be for machinery storage.

And a massive piece of scaffolding was erected in the last few days at
one of the sites right in the middle of a field.

A wind farm?

The sites are too far apart for that. The site entrances cover Brierly
to Hampole but the site entrances are not linked together ie each site
is an individual site.


The Thorpe Marsh - West Melton 275kV lines cross the A1 and then run close to
Hampole. It could be preparations for a conductor restringing and/or tower
replacements. Will check and see if anything is scheduled.

Other than that how about fracking seismic testing?
