Warwick planning roundup: junction closures, 250 homes and business halted
By James Smith 2nd May 2026
Here are the biggest local planning stories from the past week.
'Bridge to Nowhere'
The bridge over the A46 junction at Stoneleigh is set to close on multiple dates over the summer, the county council has confirmed.
Work resumed on the over-budget and much-delayed scheme at the start of 2026, with works due to run into the summer of next year.
Warwickshire County Council has said the last few weeks have seen "great progress" made.
Major Housing Plan
A planning application for 250 new homes in Hampton Magna has been submitted to Warwick District Council.
William Davis Ltd has put forward the scheme for fields on Old Budbrooke Road on the edge of the village.
If approved, the scheme would see the new estate built across 21.75 hectares of land.
Upholstery Halted
Council planners have refused an application for a house at Warwick Gates from an upholstery business.
Warwick District Council has thrown out an application for a 'certificate of lawfulness' at the home on Touchstone Road which would have recognised its joint use as a dwelling and as the base for 'MiCala Upholstery'.
Plans state the business has run there since 2017, but it now looks set to have to apply for full planning permission to change the use of the building.
