Still wondering what that scaffolding? is there for, looks like
it's hanging a net over the whole lot, looking at your picture.
Anyway, excellent pictures you got.

I got a video of the section here.

Thanks. The pictures would have been much better from that nice
concrete bridge!!

Yes, there is a matching scaffolding to the left with a net to
catch the wires if they fall !! There is a lot of building work
going on on that side but nets maybe a permanent feature.

Permanent? Why? This arrangement of two scaffolding supports has been a
standard method for handling cable replacements on the National Grid,
where the grid line crosses a road or railway, for many years. It's
just a temporary construction while they replace one or more cables.
