An awful lot of roads near me seem to have "site entrance signs" to
fields and lots of mud on the road. Started about a week ago.

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 offshore wind farm at Worthing involved laying around 30km of
underground cabling. There were site entrances spread along the whole
length of the run.

We were lucky here. Only about 2km between where the cables came onshore
and where they had to go (taking an under-road route). They did it twice,
second time to add more cable.

Unfortunately it was my road to work.
