Road closures to install a new bridge over the A46 have been delayed until the new year, the council has announced.

Warwickshire County Council announced last month that the Stoneleigh Junction bridge deck would be moved into place this December.

But it has now pushed the work back until January "to minimise disruption during the Christmas period".

Having started in December 2020, the works will also see a new roundabout built at the site.

Closures will now be in place along the A46 between 17 January and 22 January.

Further details on the extent of closures and their timings will be provided closer to the move in the new year. On the stated days, diversion routes will be well-signposted throughout the local network. 

Cllr Wallace Redford, portfolio holder for transport and highways, said: "These closures are essential in order to allow for delivery and installation of the bridge deck, which forms part of the Stoneleigh Junction Improvement Scheme.

"We would like to sincerely thank local residents for their continued patience with these essential developments to the junction, which forms part of this Council's commitment to ensuring that residents are supported through excellent transport infrastructure."
