DVSP User featured on BBC’s “Countryfile”
Congratulations to DVSP users PB in Cardiff who had their visualisation for the M25 Widening Project in London featured on the BBC TV programme “Countryfile” on Sunday.
Countryfile is presented by John Craven and broadcasted weekly throughout the UK on BBC1. The programme focuses on topical countryside and environmental issues affecting farming and fisheries, rural living and business, outdoor leisure, and UK wildlife.
The M25 is one of Europe’s busiest roads, forming a circle around London. The UK Highways Agency is planning a £5bn road widening project for the M25. This will change most of the remaining three-lane sections on the northern side into four lanes.
In this Countryfile report, John Craven got to grips with the challenges of farming within the M25 and discovered what plans to widen motorways could mean for the British countryside. With the help of PB’s visualisation produced in DVSP, Civil engineer Scot Steadman explained how the project will be implemented, taking the surrounding environment into consideration.
This Countryfile episode can currently be viewed online using the BBC’s IPlayer, and is expected to be online for around two weeks from the original date of transmission (24th February 2008). BBC IPlayer is currently available in the UK only.
