There is a public path that traverses the site and passes 50 metres south of the main athletics stadium. Access from Stratfotd or Hackney sides. you can ride it or walk it.

There is a cafe half way along called IIRC Olympic Tube and some display boards pointing out what is what etc. V popular unsurprisingly. Not everyone is a miserabilist northerner. Lots of visitors and Londoners are interested and positive.

I work there contracting and for the life of me can't think what anyone would actually want to look at, but plenty do. It's all rather dull - well to me it is, but then I'm a miserabilist northerner.

Well until recently there was lots of big yellow earth moving equipment chugging away, even on a Sunday. Never tire of watching some of Caterpillar's finest in action. Some very good earth moving going behind Kings Cross at the moment but big hydraulic shovels and dump trucks. Great.
