Another week of overnight closures has been announced for the A46 Stoneleigh Junction.

The new southbound exit slip road is set to open on February 6 but closures are needed both to finish it and to allow surfacing works on the new northbound entry slip road.

A number of overnight closures have already taken place to allow the £38m scheme to continue, and the A46 continues to be reduced to 50mph with narrow lanes around the junction.

The next set of closures will be in place between Monday, January 31 and Sunday, February 6.

All will last from 8pm to 6am with short diversion in places where necessary.

Warwickshire County Council said the aim of the scheme is "to reduce the regular delays and queueing traffic, improve road safety for all users and ensure the junction has the capacity that will be required to meet future growth in the sub-region."

Cllr Wallace Redford, Warwickshire County Council Portfolio Holder for Transport and Highways, said: "These road closures are essential in order to allow works to continue on the Stoneleigh Junction Improvement Scheme and every attempt has been made to schedule these at a time when disruption to the highway will be minimised.

"We would like to sincerely thank residents for their continued patience with these essential developments to the junction."
