Councillors have criticised the continued delays for a new roundabout to be built on a busy Kenilworth road.

The works at the junction of Glasshouse Lane and Stansfield Grove have once again been put back, with the latest start date now publicised as early August.

Eventually, the project will see a four-arm roundabout built at the entrance to the Stoneleigh View housing estate.

But as the scheme continues to be pushed back, Liberal Democrat councillors have criticised Warwickshire County Council for the lack of urgency - particularly after there was a crash on Glasshouse Lane last week.

"Leaving aside the fact that if infrastructure was properly managed, this piece of infrastructure would have been in place three years ago before the new school opened. Since 2023, there have been far too many delays," the group said.

It added: "This latest delay is especially bad timing because, on Tuesday this week, there was another road traffic accident on Glasshouse Lane. What's more, trusted timely delivery of infrastructure is a key factor in the draft South Warwickshire Local Plan."

The new junction on Glasshouse Lane was originally planned for 2024, before being pushed back to 2025 and then this year.

So far in 2026, the council's online roadworks map has published scheduled start dates for March, April, May and June. Currently it is advertising an August start to the project.

The four-arm roundabout will also include "footway and cycleway facilities" connecting to those already being built along Glasshouse Lane will be built..

A council spokesperson told Nub News: "We understand the frustrations of the local community regarding the delays with the Stansfield Grove roundabout.

"We want to reassure residents that we are working proactively with the developer, Vistry, their designer and internal colleagues to review and confirm a minor design change that has become necessary before works start on site.

"We will confirm a commencement date as soon as possible."
