NOTES: This is one of the images taken for 'Manplan 5: 'Religion and Environment' in Architectural Review, vol. 147, 1970 Mar. This elevated road in west London is one of the first examples employing reinforced concrete balanced cantilever beam supports with a single central column. It carries the A4 arterial road over and to one side of the central Hammersmith gyratory system, linking together the Cromwell Road extension with the start of the Great West Road.
