🚧👷‍♀️Work is underway to deliver England’s first cycle street on Adams Road, as part of the #CombertonGreenway.
An orange excavator with ‘Morris Leslie Plant Hire’ branding is positioned behind a line of red plastic safety barriers and traffic cones on a partially closed road. The excavator’s bucket is raised and filled with soil. Surrounding the site are trees with autumn foliage in shades of green, yellow, and orange. A section of the road is visible in the foreground, and the Greater Cambridge Partnership logo appears in the bottom left corner.
