Kenilworth planning roundup: Roundabout, 250 homes and industrial estate
Here are the biggest local planning stories from the past week.
Roundabout
Works to build a new roundabout on a busy Kenilworth road are expected to last at least four months, Warwickshire County Council has confirmed.
The four-arm roundabout will be built on Glasshouse Lane as part of the new Stoneleigh View housing estate, which is already under construction.
The new junction, which will also include the entrance to Stansfield Grove, will be built by contractors appointed by the council, with works expected to start in May.

Farm Site
Locals are set to be kept waiting until June to find out whether 250 homes near the Berkswell Windmill will be given planning permission.
Developer Barwood Land has applied for planning permission from Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council (SMBC) for the development between Hob Lane and Windmill Lane between Kenilworth and Balsall Common.
If approved, the scheme would see a farm, chicken runs, commercial units and a caravan storage site flattened to make way for the estate.

Industrial Estate's Development
SEGRO has completed construction of the first three warehouses at a 215-acre 'logistics hub' being built near Coventry Airport.
The buildings at SEGRO Park Coventry include a new 300,000 sq ft regional distribution hub for DHL and two speculative units, comprising 140,000 sq ft and 220,000 sq ft respectively.
The units have been built to modern sustainability standards, achieving a BREEAM 'Excellent' rating and the highest EPC A+ standard.
