What happened to that curve? I guess it was built on, but sometimes these *

Much of the curve was/is subterranean - I understand that the
underground NCP car park on Snow Hill occupies some of the alignment.
Been intrigued by this and have been intending to investigate for a
while, but I'm not too sure how welcome non parking customers
traipsing around on foot might be (not that such considerations have
put a halt to my explorations before!). Also the car park is closed at
weekends.
