Here are the biggest local planning stories from the past week.

Cubbington Cutting

The designs for a 2km cutting in Cubbington for the HS2 line have been signed off by Warwick District Council (WDC).

The high speed rail developer first put forward the plans for the 12-metre deep cutting at the end of last year.

Extending between Coventry Road and Mill Lane, the Cubbington Cutting will see a large number of trees planted along its length to mask it from view and also to replace any removed for it to be built.

Cemetery Mast

Plans to install a 5G mast next to Kenilworth Cemetery have been submitted to Warwick District Council (WDC).

If approved the scheme would see the 15-metre high communications mast installed on a grass verge on Oaks Road.
