GIANT ARCH BEING BUILT TO BURY CHERNOBYL


Burying the horrors of Chernobyl: Extraordinary images of giant steel arch which will shut off radioactive site as countryside remains desolate 27 years on.

Structure set to be completed by 2015 and will protect against another radiation leak.

-  Workers at the site have an annual radiation allowance and must stop if they exceed it.

-  The huge arch could encase the Statue Of Liberty and fit a football pitch inside.

-  It is being built a few hundred metres from reactor, and will be wheeled into place when completed.
