WESTWAY FLYOVER, A40, KENSINGTON AND CHELSEA, GREATER LONDON. Representatives from the Greater London Council, G Maunsell & Partners and John Laing & Son at a dinner to celebrate the opening of the Westway Flyover.
Work on site for the Western Avenue Extension began on 1st September 1966, and the Westway as it became known was officially opened on 28th July 1970. The elevated highway connecting the A40 at White City to Marylebone Road in Paddington, at around 2 miles, was the longest in Europe. Consulting engineers G Maunsell & Partners designed the road project for the Greater London Council and John Laing & Son undertook the construction. It was organised into six sections. Sections 1, 4, 5 & 6 formed the main flyover into central London with Sections 2 & 3 being the West Cross Route, running south from the junction in Section 1 near Latimer Road to Shepherds Bush. The maps and diagrams behind the top table demonstrate the different construction techniques demanded by each section
