This month, work seems to be at full speed on the site, getting it ready for the infill process, with trees, lights, and concrete cleared off of the site over the previous month and the infill settlement lagoon walls constructed in the centre of the site.
This is another photo taken on my iphone showing a digger creating a channel on the beach, presumably to bury some pipe that will travel from the beach to the boat that will be moored offshore to allow the infill process to begin.
Below is a quick photo I took using my iphone from Seaton hole as I was walking into Seaton, it is of one of the four boats that were off shore preparing for something to do with the pipeline. I will get some clearer photos on my SLR camera after the weekend as I will be photographing the London Olympic site, one of my other regeneration photo projects.
This photo was taken the day that the main pipeline bridge was installed over the road linking Seaton and Axmouth.
Another photo taken on my iphone on Grizzly run day, this one is peering through a gap in the fence of the racal site, where the second pipe bridge waits to be lifted into place the following day (14th March), where the landscape will look a lot different while the infill work is done.
The photo below was taken on my iphone on the day of the Grizzly run, where one of the pipeline bridges have already been lifted into place between the regeneration site and the former Racal/station site. It is visible easily from the tramway side of the site due to being 5 metres high.
Outside the main site entrance, more signs have appeared with this one being one of the most obvious to passers by with the Tesco logo on it, giving people a phone number if they have queries about the site.
The photo below is of one of the numerous trucks on site carrying rubble etc from one part of the site to another part of the site.
The photo below was taken looking through the tramway side of the regeneration site using a telephoto lens so that I could get a closer view of some of the work on site.
This image was taken from the same spot as a lot of older photos I have taken of the area. It is at the south western entrance opposite the bus depot, where I managed to fit the camera lens into a gap in between the gate and the perimeter fence. Even half a month ago, you could see the access road running down the centre of the photo, but as the work has progressed, it has disappeared, with only the curb giving signs that it was there. At the back of the photo is the southern wall of the infill settlement lagoon.
The two photographs below show the tramway side of the site, which now looks different due to the trees lining this side being cut down, so there is a clear view a large majority of the work going on on site.
With this photo, also taken from the beach, you can see the site office etc, but you can also make out the infill settlement lagoon that has been constructed over the last few weeks, to contain all of the infill material, once that process gets going.
The photo below was taken from the esplanade, looking through one of the gaps in buildings and I saw the frame filled with layer upon layer of diggers, just showing how busy the site is, even in this small cross section of it.
Below is another over the fence shot with my compact camera, where the gate to the south western entrance is.
The photo below was taken at the beginning of the month using my compact camera attatched to a tripod, so that I could lift the camera over the perimeter fence, to get a better view of what was happening on site.
