johnneyw,

The demolition debris is being removed via the subway that links all of the platform buildings and then taken to the old GPO^▸ (Government Printing Office, or possibly General Post Office - now referred to POT^▸ (Post Office Telecommunications) - depending on context) site where it is sorted and transferred to skips for disposal.

As for the canopies, they are not being reinstated to their former length but the exposed gables will have dagger boards fixed to them.

Albert Road Bridge- NR^» (Network Rail - home page) selected the colour in consultation with the local council, apparently its Bristol Blue.

The current plan is to remove the first two spans at Christmas. Span 1 being between platform 1-6 and span 2 between 7-9, although there is a possibility that the span 1 could be removed prior.

The remaining spans will be removed post Christmas.
