HS2 has been given the green light for a new bridge to carry the realigned Stoneleigh Road over the new rail line.

Warwick District Council has given the go-ahead for the designs to the new bridge which will also carry the W171 footpath.

Plans show the carriageway will have a greenway on either side.

"The footpath W171 was located west of the B4113, running in close proximity alongside the road and crossing the River Avon near Stoneleigh Park Estate," the application explained. 

"Footpath W171 has been realigned in line with the location of the overbridge. 

"The realignment begins at the River Avon crossing and joins Stoneleigh Road realignment to the north of the overbridge."

The highway has been realigned by 50 metres to the south.

As part of the reconfigured highway, the existing junction between Stareton Lane, Stoneleigh Business Park and the B4113 has been removed. 

A new four-arm roundabout has been provided adjacent to Stoneleigh Business Park to allow this access and a new 'T' junction has been provided for Stareton Lane.
