Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DCX6CR - The historic tugboat John King pictured on the Bristol Floating Harbour, photographed near Underfall Yard on Cumberland Road, Bristol BS1 6XG. The vessel is a well-known feature of Bristol's harbour, representing the city's long association with maritime trade, engineering and inland port activity.
Built as a working harbour tug, John King played a practical role in towing, manoeuvring and servicing vessels within the Floating Harbour system, which was engineered to maintain constant water levels despite tidal changes on the River Avon. The boat's compact, powerful design reflects traditional twentieth-century harbour engineering, prioritising strength, manoeuvrability and reliability.
Today, John King is preserved as part of Bristol's living maritime heritage, frequently seen operating or on display alongside historic dock infrastructure at Underfall Yard. This area remains an active hub for boat maintenance, education and heritage conservation, linking Bristol's industrial past with contemporary waterfront use.
The background of modern apartments and regenerated quayside highlights the contrast between historic working vessels and Bristol's transformed harbourside, where former industrial docks now coexist with residential, cultural and leisure developments. Scenes such as this are commonly used editorially to illustrate themes of harbour regeneration, industrial heritage preservation and the evolving role of working waterfronts in UK cities.
Photographed in daylight with calm harbour waters and surrounding urban development visible, the image offers strong editorial value for subjects including maritime history, heritage vessels, port city regeneration and Britain's working waterways.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CGCK2M - A large yellow Ainscough mobile crane dominates Deansgate in Manchester city centre during a temporary road closure required for major lifting operations. The scene is photographed in summer 2025 under clear blue skies, strong daylight and dry conditions, typical of hot summer weather in the city.
Behind the crane rises the Beetham Tower, one of Manchester's most recognisable skyscrapers, housing the Hilton Manchester Deansgate hotel. The contrast between heavy construction machinery at street level and the sleek glass tower above highlights the scale and complexity of maintaining, adapting and developing dense urban environments.
Such operations frequently require full road closures and extensive traffic management in Manchester's core, reflecting the ongoing regeneration and vertical growth of the city. The image is well suited for editorial use covering urban development, construction logistics, infrastructure disruption, city-centre regeneration, and the practical realities of maintaining modern high-rise buildings within historic street networks.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3BR177E - A busy scene of Transport for Ireland (TFI) double-decker buses and city traffic moving slowly around Parnell Square in Dublin city centre, Ireland. Multiple green and yellow Dublin Bus and Bus ??ireann vehicles are visible, reflecting the colour scheme used across Ireland's integrated public transport network.
Parnell Square is a key traffic junction on the north side of Dublin's city centre, bordered by Georgian red-brick terraces and major cultural and civic institutions. The image captures congestion caused by high bus volumes, private cars, and constrained road space, illustrating the daily pressures on Dublin's urban transport infrastructure.
Public buses play a central role in Dublin's transport system, supporting commuting, tourism, and city-centre accessibility. However, increasing demand, roadworks, and competing uses of limited street space have contributed to recurring congestion in areas such as Parnell Square.
This photograph is suitable for editorial use illustrating urban transport challenges, public transport policy, city congestion, sustainable mobility debates, infrastructure capacity, and everyday street life in Ireland's capital.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3BR177K - Abbey Presbyterian Church is a church located at Parnell Square, Dublin. Designed by architect Andrew Heiton of Perth, Scotland, it is a decorated Gothic building, with a spire 180 feet (54.9 m) high. The church was erected in 1864 with funding from Alexander Findlater (1797?1873), a Dublin merchant and philanthropist, and is known colloquially as Findlater's church, and it is referred to in two of James Joyce's novels as Findlater's Church.
The Church was built on the north eastern corner of Rutland (now Parnell) Square and North Frederick Street. It was built on the site of Headfort House (sometimes Bective House), which was owned by the Earl of Bective (also the Marquess of Headfort), and named after his family's County Meath estate at Headfort House. The Earl had moved from a house of the same name in Smithfield which had by that time become an unfashionable district.
One of the first preachers was John Hall (1829?1898).
The congregation had previously, from 1667 until 1864, worshipped on Capel Street, on the site of the old St. Mary's Abbey. It was founded by a preacher from Bull Alley, the Rev. William Jacque, who left along with some of its congregation to form the new church. The Capel Street Congregation was sometimes incorrectly referred to as the Scots Church, and confused with the Scots Presbyterian Church, Lower Abbey Street. In 1778 during Rev. McDowell's ministry, the congregation renamed itself Mary's Abbey Congregation (whence the Abbey Presbyterian Church gets its name).
In 1911 Abbey Church, along with other Presbyterian churches, The Scots Church, Ormond Quay church and Union Chapel, founded Lindsay Road National School.
In 1918 the Union Chapel, on Lower Abbey Street, whose chapel had been damaged during the 1916 Rising, joined the Abbey Presbyterian Church

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2X9BPB7 - A temporary Filming Ahead road sign positioned on Lime Street in Liverpool city centre, England, photographed during active location filming in May 2024. The sign warns pedestrians and motorists of filming activity ahead and is placed near the Empire Theatre, a prominent landmark on one of the city's busiest streets.
The image was taken during production of Fountain of Youth, an Apple Original Films project directed by Guy Ritchie and produced for Apple TV+. Liverpool has become a frequent filming location for major international film and television productions, with Lime Street often used due to its grand architecture, transport links, and proximity to theatres and civic buildings.
Temporary signage such as this forms part of standard film-set safety and traffic management procedures, helping to manage public movement and minimise disruption in busy urban environments. The surrounding streetscape reflects everyday city life continuing alongside large-scale film production.
This image is suitable for editorial use illustrating film and television production in public spaces, Apple TV+ projects, behind-the-scenes filmmaking, urban disruption caused by location shoots, Liverpool as a filming destination, and the intersection of city life and the entertainment industry.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T3EFRK - Just Stop Oil is a British environmental activist group. Using civil resistance, direct action, vandalism and traffic obstruction, the group aims for the British government to commit to ending new fossil fuel licensing and production. The group was founded in February 2022 and began protesting at English oil terminals in April 2022.
The group has gained both criticism and approval of its methods of activism, which have included vandalism and obstructing traffic.
Just Stop Oil opposes the United Kingdom granting new fossil fuel licensing and production agreements
on its website, it calls for the Government of the United Kingdom to stop all future consents and licensing agreements related to the development, exploration, and production of fossil fuels in the country. The group supports investment in renewable energy, and says that buildings need to have better thermal insulation to avoid wasting energy.
The group describes itself as non-hierarchical, with activists in the group operating in autonomous blocs that share resources but have no formal leadership.
The group favours nonviolent direct action and civil resistance and follows an approach of general social disruption, similar to the methods of climate activist groups Extinction Rebellion and Insulate Britain, although favouring cultural institutions as protest targets

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFER1D - A penalty charge notice from Cardiff council, is an official notification that you have been found to have committed a minor offence, for which there is a standard penalty charge. PCN are used to streamline the process of penalising minor offenders, without the expense and complication of legal proceedings.
Any offence that has a standard penalty charge, is not an offence that you can be prosecuted for. A penalty charge is not the same thing as an enforceable fine. That being said, you can't just ignore a PCN. You will need to either appeal against it or pay it.
Cardiff council issues Penalty Charge Notices (PCN) for a number of reasons. However, the most common reasons why you might either find one attached to your vehicle or be sent one by post, are for minor traffic rule infractions and parking offences.
If you are issued with a PCN, what do you need to do with it? Can you ignore it, or do you have to pay it? Or is there some way to make an appeal against the PCN?
You can't pay a penalty charge notice in instalments. There are three ways to pay a Cardiff council penalty charge notice. You can pay online, as long as you know the PCN number and have a credit or debit card. There is also a payment hotline that is open 7 days a week, around the clock. You can call 029 2044 5900 and give the PCN number, and then pay using a payment card. Lastly, you can make out a cheque or postal order to Cardiff Council, write the PCN number on the back, and then post it to the following address:
Parking Services, PO Box 47, Cardiff, CF11 1QB

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2REGHT7 - This image shows a canal boat in the foreground at Northwich Quay Marina, located on London Road in Northwich, Cheshire. The wide view across the marina reveals multiple narrowboats and leisure craft moored around the basin, with still water creating clear reflections of boats, trees, and surrounding buildings.
The photograph was taken in daylight under partly cloudy skies, with soft light and broken cloud cover enhancing the reflective surface of the water. The presence of a canal boat in the immediate foreground adds depth and visual interest, drawing the viewer into the scene and emphasising the scale and calmness of the marina.
Northwich Quay Marina is a popular destination for leisure boaters and visitors, providing access to the River Weaver navigation and the wider UK canal network. The marina sits close to the town centre, combining waterside recreation with nearby shops, caf??s, and walking routes.
The image captures a tranquil and attractive aspect of British canal life, appealing to tourists, boating enthusiasts, and those interested in slow travel, heritage waterways, and waterside regeneration in England.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R3WMNT - This image shows Central Parade flats and its prominent clock tower on Church Hill in Walthamstow, East London, an instantly recognisable local landmark within the Walthamstow Village area of the London Borough of Waltham Forest. The building dates from the interwar period and reflects the practical yet decorative municipal architecture of the 1930s, combining red brick construction with patterned concrete panels and a tall vertical tower housing a large public clock.
The development was designed as mixed-use housing, with commercial premises at ground level and residential flats above, a common urban model intended to support walkable neighbourhoods and local trade. The clock tower acts as both a civic feature and a wayfinding landmark, visually anchoring Church Hill and the surrounding streets.
The photograph was taken in daylight under a bright, partly cloudy summer sky, which highlights the contrasting textures of brick, concrete, and glazing across the facade. Pedestrians, traffic signals, and nearby residential buildings place the structure firmly within everyday London life, emphasising its continued role as functional housing rather than a preserved monument.
Images such as this are well suited to editorial use covering themes of London housing, social and municipal architecture, urban regeneration, local identity, mixed-use development, and the character of historic residential areas in East London.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDY5 - This image shows the historic Greenwich waterfront along the River Thames in London, with the Old Royal Naval College prominently visible across the river. The symmetrical classical buildings and twin domes form one of the most recognisable architectural ensembles in the capital, reflecting the site's long maritime and naval heritage. A passenger vessel is seen travelling along the Thames in the foreground, emphasising the continued importance of the river as a transport route and tourist attraction.
The Old Royal Naval College was originally designed in the late seventeenth century by Sir Christopher Wren and Nicholas Hawksmoor and later served as a naval training establishment. Today, the site is part of the Maritime Greenwich UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognised for its outstanding contribution to architecture, science, and maritime history. The buildings now house cultural institutions, educational facilities, and public spaces, attracting visitors from around the world.
The image captures themes of British heritage, maritime history, tourism, and urban riverside life. It is suitable for editorial and commercial use relating to London landmarks, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, historic architecture, travel and tourism, the River Thames, and the cultural identity of Greenwich within the wider city of London.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WE1G - This image shows a wide view across the River Thames from Greenwich in South East London, looking toward the O2 Arena at North Greenwich and the modern skyline of Canary Wharf beyond. The distinctive white dome of the O2, originally built as the Millennium Dome, is visible alongside the cluster of high-rise office towers that define London's Docklands financial district.
In the foreground, boats travel along the River Thames, emphasising the river's continued role as a working transport corridor as well as a visual and recreational feature of the city. The movement of vessels contrasts with the static skyline, highlighting different layers of London's urban life.
The scene illustrates the dramatic transformation of East London since the late 20th century, where former docklands and industrial areas have been redeveloped into major commercial, entertainment, and residential districts. Viewed from Greenwich, an area rich in maritime heritage, the modern architecture across the river underscores the city's constant evolution.
Photographed in daylight under a blue sky with scattered clouds, the image is well suited to editorial use covering London cityscapes, urban regeneration, riverside development, transport, travel, and the juxtaposition of historic and contemporary London.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNE6 - This image shows an electronic roadside speed indicator sign displaying the message Your Speed 27 followed by Thank You, indicating that a passing vehicle is travelling below the posted 30 mph speed limit. These digital feedback signs are commonly installed on residential and urban roads across the United Kingdom as part of traffic-calming and road-safety initiatives.
Unlike enforcement cameras, speed indicator devices are designed to influence driver behaviour through immediate feedback rather than penalties. When drivers remain within the speed limit, positive reinforcement messages such as Thank You are displayed, encouraging continued compliance and awareness.
The sign is mounted on a roadside pole beside a two-lane road, with a passing vehicle captured in motion, reinforcing the real-world context of everyday driving. Such signage is often used near housing estates, schools, and pedestrian-heavy areas to reduce accident risk and improve community safety.
Photographed in daylight, the image is well suited to editorial use covering road safety, traffic management, transport policy, urban infrastructure, community speed reduction schemes, and responsible driving behaviour in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNFB - This image shows an electronic roadside speed indicator sign on Bellhouse Lane in Grappenhall, near Warrington in Cheshire. The sign displays the message Your Speed 37 followed by Slow Down, indicating that a passing vehicle is exceeding the 30 mph speed limit in this residential area.
Speed indicator devices of this type are widely used across the United Kingdom as part of traffic calming and road safety initiatives. Unlike enforcement cameras, they provide immediate visual feedback to drivers, highlighting excessive speed and encouraging behavioural change without issuing penalties. When drivers exceed the limit, warning messages such as Slow Down are triggered to reinforce compliance.
The photograph captures a car passing the sign with visible motion blur, emphasising the contrast between the digital warning and real-world driving behaviour. Installed on a tree-lined suburban road, the sign reflects local authority efforts to improve safety for residents, pedestrians, and other road users.
Photographed in daylight, the image is well suited to editorial use covering road safety, speed management, transport policy, residential traffic issues, community safety schemes, and the use of technology to influence driver behaviour on UK roads.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PHEJHF - No seatbelt a factor in 30% of UK road deaths in 2021
Some 1558 people lost their lives in crashes last year, up from 1460 in pre-pandemic 2019
New statistics released by the UK government have revealed that the number of road fatalities increased by 7% year on year in 2021, with 1558 people losing their lives in crashes.
The figure is up from 1460 deaths in 2020, when Covid-related restrictions heavily impacted levels of traffic on UK roads, but down 11% on pre-pandemic 2019, largely because numbers in 2021 were also kept down by lockdowns.
Some 128,209 casualties of varying severity occurred in 2021, which was down 16% on 2019, equating to 425 casualties per billion miles - also a drop from 2019.
The figures also revealed that pedal cyclist fatalities dropped by 21%, following an increase in 2020, associated with the pandemic. However, the number of cyclist casualties slightly increased by around 1%.
While the overall number of road deaths is down on pre-pandemic levels, the fatality rate per billion miles driven has increased, suggesting little progress is being made in making our roads safer, said Simon Williams, the RAC's spokesman on road safety.
We urge the government to publish its updated road-safety plan, which focuses on both improving car safety ? including mandating technology such as intelligent speed assist in new cars ? as well as measures to tackle poor driving standards and illegal behaviour behind the wheel.
A deeper dive into the figures showed that not wearing a seatbelt contributed to 30% of road deaths in 2021, a figure that increased to 47% at night.
The Department for Transport said that 34% of men killed in car accidents weren't wearing a seatbelt, compared with 20% of women.
The statistics also showed that people aged between 17 and 29 were the most likely to lose their life when not wearing a seatbelt, making up 40% of the overall figure.

Traditional and modern buildings line the street, placing the scene firmly within a lived-in European city environment rather than a purpose-built transit corridor.
Mainz has a well-established tram network that forms a core part of the city's public transport system, supporting daily commuting and short-distance travel across the urban area. Tram services such as line 52 reflect the importance of sustainable, low-emission transport in German cities, where trams remain central to mobility planning and city-centre accessibility.
The image captures everyday urban life, combining public transport infrastructure with street-level activity and mixed use of public space. It conveys themes of sustainable transport, European city living, urban mobility, and the integration of trams into historic streetscapes. The photograph is suitable for editorial and commercial use relating to public transport, German cities, urban life, sustainable travel, and European street scenes.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2P4JX9W - Church Street is a street in Liverpool, England, lying between Bold Street to the east and Lord Street to the west. It is the main shopping area of Liverpool and takes its name from St Peter's Church, which was demolished in 1922. The side streets to the north of Church Street lead to Williamson Square, while the Grade I listed Bluecoat Chambers?the oldest surviving building in Liverpool?is to the south along Church Alley. The Liverpool Athenaeum, an institution founded in the 18th century, is also on Church Alley. The area behind the shops on the south side of Church Street is now part of the Liverpool One shopping complex, which opened in October 2008 after the redevelopment of a large part of the L1 postcode area (hence the name).

The new car park, which was due to open
in December 2017, is a great example of
how architects and contractors can work in
partnership with Maple to transform typically
dull and utilitarian buildings into an integral and
aesthetically appealing part of the urban realm.
With its hexagon-featured golden fa??ade, the
car park complements the other elements of
the ?107m Time Square development.
The new car park is an integral and important
part of the Time Square project as it will
underpin and support the whole scheme, said
the leader of Warrington Borough Council, Terry
O'Neill.
Architect's ratings
Leach Rhodes Walker described us as ?excellent'
after the successful collaboration. Maple's
knowledge and craftsmanship was excellent
throughout, said LRW's lead project designer,
Ka Yin Man. From when we spoke to sales
about the commercials, to (dealing with) the
design and projects teams, the whole experience
was collaborative. In a post-project interview,
the architects' firm gave us top marks for design
services, project support, meeting deadlines
and the quality of the finished product. Added
Ka Yin: Maple were always helpful, and any
questions were dealt with promptly. Everyone
was very knowledgeable and accommodating.
The end result was even better than expected
The project was one of the first to use the new
dedicated prototype area at Maple's factory in
Stockport. The architects and contractors I & H
Brown Construction were able to view real-life
examples of the bespoke perforated panels and
golden hexagon cut-outs - at actual size. The
prototypes were powder-coated in the specified
colour, and fitted to the display framework using
actual fittings - meaning that any changes to the
design or specification could be made without
it having a major impact on timings or budget

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JKBPH1 - Blackfriars, also known as London Blackfriars, is a central London railway station and connected London Underground station in the City of London. It provides Thameslink services: local (from North to South London), and regional (Bedford and Cambridge to Brighton) and limited Southeastern commuter services to South East London and Kent. Its platforms span the River Thames, the only one in London to do so, along the length of Blackfriars Railway Bridge, a short distance downstream from Blackfriars Bridge. There are two station entrances either side of the Thames, along with a connection to the London Underground District and Circle lines.
The main line station was opened by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway with the name St. Paul's in 1886, as a replacement for the earlier Blackfriars Bridge station (now the present station's southern entrance) and the earlier Blackfriars railway bridge. This increased capacity of rail traffic through the Snow Hill tunnel to the rest of the rail network. The Underground station opened in 1870 with the arrival of the Metropolitan District Railway. The station was renamed Blackfriars in 1937 to avoid confusion with St Paul's tube station. It was rebuilt in the 1970s, which included the addition of office space above the station and the closure of the original railway bridge, which was demolished in 1985.
In 2009, the station underwent major refurbishments to improve capacity, which included the extension of the platforms across the railway bridge and a new station entrance on the South Bank. The underground station was rebuilt at the same time, and work was completed in 2012.

A puffin crossing with nearside signals in Aviemore
A staggered set of pelican crossings with farside signals in Greenwich
Pelican crossings, puffin crossings and pedex crossings are all types of controlled crossing controlled by traffic signals for pedestrians and drivers. These types of crossings can be used where vehicle speeds are high, where there are a lot of vulnerable pedestrians, where vehicle flows or pedestrian flows are high or where the road layout could cause uncertainty.
At these crossings, there will be at least two signal heads facing each direction of vehicular traffic, as well as signal heads and call buttons for pedestrians. The crossings can be staggered to shorten crossing times, mainly for the benefit of vehicular traffic flow.
While pelican crossings are no longer permitted to be installed in Great Britain (they are in Northern Ireland), pedex crossings allow the continued use of farside pedestrian signals

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2E018GP - Woolston Weir Hydro project underway at last
long-awaited hydro-electric power installation planned at Woolston Weir since 2013 is finally getting under way.
The scheme which complements the Environment Agency flood defences is being undertaken by Czech company Hydropol and work has begun clearing the site for the arrival of the equipment starting this week.
This renewable energy electricity source will provide sufficient power for 380 typical UK homes and will effectively save in the region of 750 Tonnes of CO2 per year.
The installation will comprise of three Archimedes screw design turbines which are fish friendly. There will also be an improved and brand new fish pass allowing salmon, coarse fish and eels to pass through unharmed.
Locally available national grid connections means there is no need for pylons and there is sufficient separation from residential properties to ensure no operational noise pollution.
It is situated on the opposite bank of the river from Woolston Eyes so poses no threat to any of the wildlife on the local SSSI.
Main construction is planned between August 2020 and January 2021 with turbine delivery in early 2021 and project completion around April 2021.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AJRRJR - Manchester Airport Holdings Limited, trading as MAG (originally Manchester Airports Group) is a holding company which is owned by the ten metropolitan borough councils of Greater Manchester, in North West England, and Australian investment fund IFM Investors. Founded in 2001 following the acquisition of East Midlands Airport, MAG is the largest UK-owned airport operator, following the purchase of BAA by Spain's Ferrovial Group in 2006. MAG owns three British airports, East Midlands and Manchester Airport (which is the busiest airport outside the London region), as well as London Stansted Airport. In the 2017/18 financial year, 58.9 million passengers used MAG airports.
Of the ten metropolitan boroughs of Greater Manchester, Manchester City Council holds the largest stake, at 35.5%. The remaining nine councils hold a total of 29%. IFM Investors own a 35.5% stake in MAG. The Group has its registered office at Manchester Town Hall. MAG operates on a commercial basis at arm's length from its public owners who only take a dividend from profits. This was ?20 million in 2010 while MAG retained ?80 million from the ?100 million profit
Manchester Airport opened in 1938 and was funded by Manchester City Council and has remained in public ownership ever since. It is the third-busiest airport in the United Kingdom after Heathrow and Gatwick and is fractionally busier than Stansted (see Busiest airports in the United Kingdom by total passenger traffic). The M56 motorway was built to serve the airport in 1972, a new rail station was opened in 1993 and a second runway was completed in 1997.
From https://www.mantp.co.uk/about/ - Manchester Airport is investing more than ?1bn to give the North the world class international gateway it deserves. The Manchester Airport Transformation Programme (MAN-TP) will modernise and transform the customer service experience we are able to offer passengers and to airlines whilst allowing the airport to continue in its role as job creator

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2C9E2TG - A pelican crossing (previously Pelicon Crossing ? PEdestrian LIght CONtrolled Crossing) is a type of pedestrian crossing, which features a pair of poles each with a standard set of traffic lights facing oncoming traffic, a push button and two illuminated, coloured pictograms facing the pedestrian from across the road. These are a red, stationary person to indicate that it is not safe to cross, and a green, walking person to indicate that it is safe to do so.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2C9E2TM - A pelican crossing (previously Pelicon Crossing ? PEdestrian LIght CONtrolled Crossing) is a type of pedestrian crossing, which features a pair of poles each with a standard set of traffic lights facing oncoming traffic, a push button and two illuminated, coloured pictograms facing the pedestrian from across the road. These are a red, stationary person to indicate that it is not safe to cross, and a green, walking person to indicate that it is safe to do so. Pelican crossings also provide non-visual indication that it is safe to cross, such as a beep, vibrating button or tactile rotating cone in order to assist visually impaired pedestrians.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2BBXPB0 - The Thelwall Viaduct (grid reference SJ664883) is a steel composite girder viaduct in Lymm, Warrington, England. It carries the M6 motorway across the Manchester Ship Canal and the River Mersey. Its location on the motorway network is between junctions 20 and 21 of the M6, the former being also known as junction 9 of the M56.
It actually comprises two entirely separate bridges, one of 4,414 feet long carrying the northbound carriageway, which was the longest motorway bridge in England when it was opened in July 1963, and one 4,500 feet long carrying the southbound carriageway which was opened in 1995.The longest single span is the one of 336 feet crossing the ship canal.
In July 2002 a failed roller bearing was discovered and it became necessary to close all but one northbound lane. As the M6 at the time carried an estimated 150,000?160,000 vehicles per day, this led to serious congestion. The viaduct was not completely reopened to daytime traffic until February 2005, and subsequently remained partially closed at night for further remedial work to take place. In all, 148 bearings were replaced, with the repair scheme costing around ?52 million.
Given the bridge's height and openness to the elements it has frequently been the subject of speed reductions due to strong gusts of wind that badly affect the stability of high-sided vehicles. On several occasions lane closures have resulted as a consequence of articulated vehicles simply being blown over. However, the open sides of the bridge are a deliberate design feature to reduce the likelihood of snow drifts building on the carriageways.
In April 2011 a massive free party took place under the bridge, with reportedly over 5,000 ravers in attendance

The Duke of Wellington, with his customary Queen St traffic cone, propositions a blue haired lady guitarist, with Tunnocks Teacakes strategically placed, over her charms. With IRN Brew in the background, this is Glasgow defined in a short alleyway. A fun and slightly edgy city, that absolutely everyone should experience, at least once.
Sloans bar, down the alley, is Glasgow's oldest bar and restaurant and dates back to 1797 when it was a coffee house in Morrison's Court. Twice a week a stagecoach would leave the court bound for Edinburgh. The courtyard was also the scene for many famous cockfighting contests \u2013 the sport of the day.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PCTA15 - The equestrian Wellington Statue is a statue of Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, located on Royal Exchange Square in Glasgow, Scotland. It is located outside the Gallery of Modern Art near the end of Ingram Street. The statue was sculpted by Italian artist Carlo Marochetti and erected in 1844. Capping the statue with a traffic cone has become a traditional practice in the city, claimed to represent the humour of the local population and believed to date back to the first half of the 1980s, if not before. The statue is a Category-A listed monument, and is one of Glasgow's most iconic landmarks. Due to minor damage and the potential for injury that the placing of cones involves, the practice has been discouraged by Glasgow City Council and Strathclyde Police. In 2011 the Lonely Planet guide included the statue in its list of the top 10 most bizarre monuments on Earth.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEJ65M - Plan dropped to end cone tradition on Glasgow's Wellington statue
Plans to end a long-standing tradition of placing a traffic cone on Glasgow's iconic Duke of Wellington statue have been dropped after a massive backlash.
Glasgow City Council wanted to raise the plinth as part of a ?65,000 project to refurbish the monument, which stands outside the Gallery of Modern Art.
It abandoned the plan after a massive social media campaign saw thousands of people sign a petition opposing it.
Campaigners who planned a demonstration now say they will hold a victory rally.
The council had said that raising the height would end a practice which projected a depressing image of Glasgow and would save the ?10,000 cost of removing the cone 100 times a year.
Image caption Michael Gray is one of many campaigners who plan to hold a victory rally
The scheme would have seen a new granite-clad concrete base of 86cm (34in) added to the memorial to raise its overall height.
However, the council has reconsidered its decision after an online petition called Save Wellington's Cone, which gathered thousands of signatories in just a few hours, and a Facebook campaign which had planned a rally in support of the cone.
A council spokesman said: The wording of the report was appalling and the leader of the council (Gordon Matheson) has instructed officers to withdraw the planning application.
The petition stated: The cone on Wellington's head is an iconic part of Glasgow's heritage, and means far more to the people of Glasgow and to visitors than Wellington himself ever has.
Raising the statue will, in any case, only result in people injuring themselves attempting to put the cone on anyway: does anyone really think that a raised plinth will deter drunk Glaswegians?

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEJ5MB - The medieval Glasgow Cross was located on the road between High Street and Saltgait. Its modern replacement was built to the south-east of the original location to aid traffic. The town's tron was placed on the steeple of the town house in the 1550s. The Tron Steeple, as it became known, still stands in Glasgow Cross, one of the few remaining pre-Victorian buildings in Glasgow.
The area now known as 'Merchant City' was developed from the 1750s onwards. Residences and warehouses of the wealthy merchant tobacco lords (who prospered in shipping and, amongst other things, tobacco, sugar and tea) were built in the area. The district west of the High Street formed the historic backbone of the city, the development of what is now known as with wide, straight streets, vistas, and squares, marked the beginning of a process of aspirational residential movement westwards that would continue throughout the 19th century and into the 20th with the development of Blythswood Hill, Hillhead and the West End of Glasgow.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H6JMW0 - Aberdeen Harbour was the first publicly limited company in the United Kingdom and is today the principal commercial port in northern Scotland and an international port for general cargo, roll-on/roll-off and container traffic. The harbour also serves NorthLink Ferries, which sail to Kirkwall, Orkney and Lerwick, Shetland. The Aberdeen Maritime Museum (on Shiprow in the city centre) includes exhibitions and displays which tell the story of the harbour and its role in the economy and development of the city.
Originally, the defective harbour, with a shallow sand and gravel bar at its entrance, retarded the trade of Aberdeen, but under various acts since 1773 it was greatly deepened.
By the Harbour Act of 1868, the river Dee near the harbour was diverted from the south at a cost of ?80,000, and 90 acres (364,000 m?) of new ground, in addition to 25 acres (101,000 m?) formerly made up, were provided on the north side of the river for the Albert Basin (with a graving dock), quays and warehouses. A 1050 ft (320 m) long concrete breakwater was constructed on the south side of the stream as a protection against south-easterly gales. On Girdleness, the southern point of the bay, a lighthouse was built in 1833.
The North Pier, built partly by John Smeaton 1775-81, and partly by Thomas Telford 1810-15, extends nearly 3,000 ft (1000 m) into the North Sea and raised the bar.
Victoria Dock, named in honour of the queen's visit to the city in that year, is a wet dock of 29 acres (117,000 m?) and with 6000 ft (1800 m) of quay, was completed in 1848

The cheap and cheerful manicure has been the success story of the recession. The number of nail bars has increased by 20 per cent in the past year alone.
Earlier this year it was revealed that they are the fastest-growing business on the High Street, constituting 16 per cent of new outlets in the past three years. There are now 30,000 in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCE754 - Unique' is a much overworked word when it comes to describing pubs. But that's exactly what the Black Friar is. There's nothing else anywhere remotely like its fabulous decorative scheme, either in style or content. On a sharply triangular site opposite Blackfriars station, the pub was built in 1871-2, but what makes it so special is a remodelling from about 1905 by the then publican, Alfred Pettitt, and his architect H. Fuller-Clark. Fuller-Clark trained at the Lambeth School of Art and began practice in 1893. His artist was Henry Poole R.A., and both men were committed to the Arts & Crafts Movement which embraced a love of high-quality materials, hand craftsmanship, and often a very free, original approach to design.
Before entering the pub there is much to admire on the exterior. There is a deep mosaic fascia carrying the words Saloon / 174 / The Black Friar / 174 / Brandies on New Bridge Street side. A grand segmental arched entrance on the far left is surmounted by stone carved figures and above it a colourful mosaic of two monks fishing. The exterior lobby itself has walls and ceiling of marble. All along the exterior (well illuminated at night) are beautiful copper signs most featuring one or two friars such as a ?Worthington Ales in Bottle'
two ?Worthington Ales on Draught' ones
?To the Saloon', ?Booths Gin'
and a couple of ?Saloon Bar' signs, one of which bears a couple of friars pointing you towards the saloon and helpfully tells you it is 9 yards away. Above the corner door (no longer in use) is a ?174' in mosaic
a large stone figure of a friar
and a clock with a mosaic face. Above the Queen Victoria Street entrance on the right is a mosaic of a friar with wine in carafes flanked by stone carvings of friars. The fascia on this side has ?Brandies' in mosaic.
Throughout the pub are friars ? or at least jolly, modern reinvented versions of them ? they appear everywhere in sculptures, mosaics and metal reliefs.

In the United Kingdom, the name hackney carriage today refers to a taxicab licensed by the Public Carriage Office, local authority (non-metropolitan district councils, unitary authorities) or the Department of the Environment depending on region of the country.
Motorised hackney cabs in the UK are known as black cabs, although they are now produced in a variety of colours, sometimes in advertising brand liveries. The 50 golden cabs produced for the Queen's Golden Jubilee celebrations in 2002 were notable

It is located on the former site of East India House in Lime Street, in London's main financial district, the City of London. The building is a leading example of radical Bowellism architecture in which the services for the building, such as ducts and lifts, are located on the exterior to maximise space in the interior.
Twenty-five years after completion in 1986, the building received Grade I listing in 2011
it was the youngest structure ever to obtain this status. It is said by Historic England to be universally recognised as one of the key buildings of the modern epoch

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
Is This Desire? is a 1998 (see 1998 in music) album by British singer-songwriter PJ Harvey.
Recorded on and off in Dorset and London between April 1997 and April 1998, it was co-produced by Flood, Head and Harvey herself, and featured instrumental contributions from Rob Ellis, John Parish, Mick Harvey, Eric Drew Feldman, Joe Gore and Jeremy Hogg. It marked a move away from Harvey\u2019s earlier guitar-driven rock style into subtler, quieter, atmospheric soundscapes and mood pieces based around keyboards, bass and electronics.
The album met with a mixed reception from critics and fans upon release, some of whom were disappointed by Harvey\u2019s experimental and less bombastic new style. Reviews were generally positive, however. Q magazine praised the record as 'disturbing and excellent', CMJ called it 'another milestone in her already illustrious career', and Entertainment Weekly said it 'seethes with hypnotic power'
the magazine Dazed &
Confused claimed 'Is This Desire? will be a classic of the next 10 if not 20 years.
It has the impeccable timing of jazz, the arrangement of a classic dance track, the depth of an orchestral symphony and the emotional charge of gospel.' It received a Grammy Award nomination as Best Alternative Music Performance of 1998. Although it did not sell as well as her 1995 commercial breakthrough To Bring You My Love, it did spawn her biggest UK hit with the single 'A Perfect Day Elise'
a second single, 'The Wind', also dented the UK Top 30.
Blackpool Illuminations is an annual Lights Festival, founded in 1879 and first switched on 18 September that year, held each autumn in the English seaside resort of Blackpool on the Fylde Coast in Lancashire.
Also known locally as The Lights or The Illuminations, they run each year for sixty-six days, from late August until early November at a time when most other English seaside resorts' seasons are coming to an end. Dubbed as 'the greatest free light show on earth', they are 6 miles (10 km) long and use over one million bulbs. The display stretches along the Promenade from Starr Gate at the south end of the town to Bispham in the north.
In 2011 the Illuminations will shine from 2 September to 6 November 2011

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
My sex is invested in suburban photographs, Skyscraper shadows on a car crash overpass....'
Ultravox! is the first studio album from the band Ultravox, which at the time was properly eponymous before the band dropped the Neu!-inspired exclamation mark from their name. It contained this track and was released on Island Records February 1977. It was recorded at Island Studios in Hammersmith in the autumn of 1976 and produced by the band and Steve Lillywhite, with studio assistance from the great Brian Eno.
This band was effectively led by two different individuals in its career, two frontmen who, curiously, never played together in the band at the same time. From 1974 until 1979, the frontman and main driving force behind Ultravox was John Foxx who left the band to embark on an influential solo career that continues to this day. Some time following Foxx's departure, with the three remaining members in a hiatus, Midge Ure took over as lead singer, guitarist, and frontman.
I am a great fan of the first incarnation, before the mid 1980s New Romantic makeover. Tracks like this, 'The Wild, The Beautiful and the Damned' and 'Sat'day Night in the City of the Dead' were championed by the late great John Peel, on his 10pm BBC radio 1 show.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HCME - Opened on October 15th 1902, our hotel was originally known as the North British. Acclaimed as one of the great railway hotels, it originally boasted 300 bedrooms and 52 bathrooms. It was later renamed The Balmoral ? which means majestic dwelling in Gaelic.
Hotel porters in red jackets used to meet guests off the train at Waverley Station, taking them into a lift and whisking them from the station hall to the reception desk in the hotel.
Our notable guests have included Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor, Paul McCartney, Edward Heath and Harold Wilson. The Queen Mother was a regular for lunch. Her favourite dish was plain roast lamb.

The Levellers are an English rock band, founded in 1988 and based in Brighton, England. Their musical style is was influenced by punk and traditional/folk music. It is unclear whether the band got its name from a democratic faction of Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army
or according to guitarist, Simon Friend, was chosen from a dictionary.
They are Mark Chadwick, Jeremy Cunningham, Charlie Heather, Simon Friend, Jonathan Sevink and Matt Savage. Originally, all of the band's earnings being put together in a fund from which the members were paid the same amount every day.
1991 saw the release of their second album, Levelling the Land, the source of this track. The LP was a massive success, entering the charts at number 14. The anthemic single 'One Way', despite not reaching the Top 40, became a popular song and live favourite for years to come among the travelling and indie community. Levelling the Land is often cited as an all-time classic amongst people who were students or travellers in the early 1990s.
The band are still active. For a good starting point, track down 'One Way of Life: The Very Best of The Levellers'. Tell 'em I sent you :-)
------------------------
During the Jacobite rising of 1745, Edinburgh was briefly occupied by Jacobite forces before their march into England. Following their ultimate defeat at the Battle of Culloden, near Inverness, there was a period of reprisals and pacification, largely directed at the Catholic Highlanders.
In Edinburgh the Hanoverian monarch attempted to gain favour by supporting new developments to the north of the castle, naming streets in honour of the King and his family
George Street, Frederick Street, Hanover Street and Princes Street shown in this image at dusk, named in honour of George III's two sons.
The historic centre of Edinburgh is divided into two by the broad green swath of Princes Street Gardens. To the south the view is dominated by Edinburgh Castle, perched atop the extinct volcanic crag, and the long sweep of the Old Town trailing after it along the ridge. To the north lies Princes Street and the New Town. The gardens were begun in 1816 on bogland which had once been the Nor Loch.
One of the Edinburgh tramlines can be seen on the right. Edinburgh Trams is a forthcoming tramway system which is currently under construction in Edinburgh, Scotland. It will be the first tram system in Edinburgh since the city\u2019s previous network, Edinburgh Corporation Tramways, shut down in 1956.
The new tram system was originally scheduled to come into operation in July 2011, but the estimated completion date is now 2014, and will initially consist of one line running east-west across the city. Further extensions are planned. Originally budgeted at a cost of \u00a3375 million in 2003, the tram system is now anticipated to cost over \u00a3600 million.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R59WKD - This photograph shows a triangular yield road sign in the foreground, set against the modern glass fa??ade of the Grand Canal Theatre, now known as the Bord G?is Energy Theatre, located at Grand Canal Dock in Dublin. The image was taken in daylight under clear blue skies, highlighting the strong contrast between the red-bordered traffic sign and the reflective grid of the contemporary office and cultural buildings behind it.
The yield sign, a standard element of road safety infrastructure, represents regulation, priority, and controlled movement within urban transport systems. Its placement within the rapidly developed Docklands area illustrates the intersection of everyday traffic management with high-profile cultural and commercial architecture.
The surrounding buildings, characterised by steel frames and extensive glazing, reflect the regeneration of Dublin's Docklands from former industrial and port land into a modern mixed-use district housing offices, theatres, and public spaces. The clean lines and geometric repetition of the glass panels reinforce the contemporary character of the area.
Images such as this are often used to illustrate themes of urban development, transport infrastructure, road safety, modern European cities, and the coexistence of cultural landmarks with functional street furniture. The composition also lends itself to conceptual interpretations around caution, priority, and balance within fast-changing urban environments.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4479092773 - 'Early evening on Euroroute E22 (2320 km Holyhead to Ishim road) or the M56 as Mancunians may actually know it.
It is the main link between North wales, M6 motorway (the first in Britain), Manchester City, Airport and the M60/M62 route east. It took thirteen years from first proposal in 1958 to starting the Manchester end of the motorway, then a further ten years for all junctions to Chester to be completed.
It has recently been populated with traffic information signs displaying occasionally useful information and 'fillers' such as 'Don't Hog The Middle Lane', 'Dont Drink And Drive', 'Say No To Drugs' and other subliminal messages. It is always unerving to see a yellow sign up ahead as the density of chemical plants between Lymm and Chester (Stanlow etc) makes it quite likely for chemical spillages etc on this section.
Here is a typical news item www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/liverpool-news/local-news/2009/09... . In this case you can read how a 'busy hat stretch' (straight from Vic &

Lancaster was opened in 1965 by Rank under the name 'Forton'. When Granada eventually grasped hold of the services, they renamed it to 'Lancaster'. Unusually, Granada later changed this to 'Lancaster (Forton)' - it's not clear whether dropping the name Forton resulted in a drop of trade or just upset a few of the services' fans. This name stuck around for about a decade, but Moto are now slowly dropping the 'Forton' part leaving just 'Lancaster'. The Highways Agency still refer to it as 'Lancaster (Forton)' when there is an incident at the services.
In early 2007, a Marks and Spencers store opened here, replacing the Ladbrokes and Little Chef. The southbound Little Chef went on to become a Greggs.
For many years the name 'Forton services' was used on all example diagrams of road signs, including drawings of non-motorway signs. The services used to be listed by the Highways Agency as an approved truckstop, but this is no longer the case.
The southbound side once had a tourist information office, itself formerly a fast food unit of some sort.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFER19 - A penalty charge notice from Cardiff council, is an official notification that you have been found to have committed a minor offence, for which there is a standard penalty charge. PCN are used to streamline the process of penalising minor offenders, without the expense and complication of legal proceedings.
Any offence that has a standard penalty charge, is not an offence that you can be prosecuted for. A penalty charge is not the same thing as an enforceable fine. That being said, you can't just ignore a PCN. You will need to either appeal against it or pay it.
Cardiff council issues Penalty Charge Notices (PCN) for a number of reasons. However, the most common reasons why you might either find one attached to your vehicle or be sent one by post, are for minor traffic rule infractions and parking offences.
If you are issued with a PCN, what do you need to do with it? Can you ignore it, or do you have to pay it? Or is there some way to make an appeal against the PCN?
You can't pay a penalty charge notice in instalments. There are three ways to pay a Cardiff council penalty charge notice. You can pay online, as long as you know the PCN number and have a credit or debit card. There is also a payment hotline that is open 7 days a week, around the clock. You can call 029 2044 5900 and give the PCN number, and then pay using a payment card. Lastly, you can make out a cheque or postal order to Cardiff Council, write the PCN number on the back, and then post it to the following address:

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H6JMTG - Aberdeen Harbour was the first publicly limited company in the United Kingdom and is today the principal commercial port in northern Scotland and an international port for general cargo, roll-on/roll-off and container traffic. The harbour also serves NorthLink Ferries, which sail to Kirkwall, Orkney and Lerwick, Shetland. The Aberdeen Maritime Museum (on Shiprow in the city centre) includes exhibitions and displays which tell the story of the harbour and its role in the economy and development of the city.
Originally, the defective harbour, with a shallow sand and gravel bar at its entrance, retarded the trade of Aberdeen, but under various acts since 1773 it was greatly deepened.
By the Harbour Act of 1868, the river Dee near the harbour was diverted from the south at a cost of ?80,000, and 90 acres (364,000 m?) of new ground, in addition to 25 acres (101,000 m?) formerly made up, were provided on the north side of the river for the Albert Basin (with a graving dock), quays and warehouses. A 1050 ft (320 m) long concrete breakwater was constructed on the south side of the stream as a protection against south-easterly gales. On Girdleness, the southern point of the bay, a lighthouse was built in 1833.
The North Pier, built partly by John Smeaton 1775-81, and partly by Thomas Telford 1810-15, extends nearly 3,000 ft (1000 m) into the North Sea and raised the bar.
Victoria Dock, named in honour of the queen's visit to the city in that year, is a wet dock of 29 acres (117,000 m?) and with 6000 ft (1800 m) of quay, was completed in 1848

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H04FY7 - A pelican crossing (previously Pelicon Crossing ? PEdestrian LIght CONtrolled Crossing) is a type of pedestrian crossing, which features a pair of poles each with a standard set of traffic lights facing oncoming traffic, a push button and two illuminated, coloured pictograms facing the pedestrian from across the road.
These are a red, stationary person to indicate that it is not safe to cross, and a green, walking person to indicate that it is safe to do so. Pelican crossings also provide non-visual indication that it is safe to cross, such as a beep, vibrating button or tactile rotating cone in order to assist visually impaired pedestrians.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CF0N8R - A local authority surveyor carries out roadside measurement work on a bypass road in the United Kingdom, using a Leica total station survey instrument mounted on a tripod. The surveyor is dressed in high-visibility protective clothing and gloves, reflecting standard safety requirements for working close to live traffic. A large vehicle passes in the background, captured with motion blur, emphasising both the speed of the traffic and the risk-managed nature of the work.
The image highlights the practical, front-line role of surveyors in maintaining and improving transport infrastructure. Such work underpins road design, maintenance, safety improvements and asset management carried out by local authorities and public bodies. The presence of the Leica surveying equipment points to modern digital measurement techniques used to collect accurate positional data for highways, junctions and roadside assets.
The roadside setting, blurred lorry and focused posture of the surveyor convey concentration, professionalism and situational awareness. This visual contrast between static precision equipment and fast-moving traffic reinforces themes of risk control, engineering discipline and public safety. The scene reflects the everyday reality of civil engineering and surveying work that often takes place unnoticed alongside busy roads.
This image is well suited for editorial use covering local government, transport infrastructure, road safety, public services, engineering and surveying professions, as well as commercial applications relating to construction, infrastructure planning, professional services, workplace safety and UK transport systems.
