Thanks for the update there Phil - I assume some less disruptive roadworks will be required to finish the parapet copers on the new bridge.To report on "half the foundations" is a bit of a cheat as Market Harborough is about half way between Kettering and Wigston!
Anyway there are still no masts (or Piles) to be seen for around quarter of a mile either side of the Braybrooke supply site and there are still no piles or masts to be seen through Desborough - approx 1/2 mile. The new bridge at Rushton is open, but still missing some capstones on the side walls. There are very few if any piles and masts left in the Rushton works compound.
There are masts and cantilevers up around the Langtons, but still a gap with no piles to the North of Harborough through Great Bowden.
Talking of bridges, I suspect that the bridges around Braybrooke supply point, Desborough and Great Bowden are what's holding the piling back in that specific area.
Main St (Bridge 28D) *should* have its track lowering finished this weekend coming - I've seen on Flickr that trial holes have been dug in the area too.
Bridge 35 *should* be demolished this weekend.
As for Desborough, track lowering through the town (unsure by how much) is taking place in August - I assume the OLE will follow shortly afterwards or maybe before.
