High Speed Two (HS2) is the new high speed railway for Britain. Balfour Beatty VINCI (BBV) is working in partnership with HS2 Ltd to build the new high-speed railway in Stratford-on-Avon District. While they complete the works on the A46, there will be increased construction activity overnight.
A section of the A46 from the Stivichall Interchange (Festival Island) to the Thickthorn Island (A452 for Leamington and Kenilworth) will be closed overnight for two weekends each night on the evenings of:
Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 August from 8pm to 6am
