​​Temporary daytime closures of Diddington Lane – near Hampton

What we are doing

We’re building the railway to the northeast of Hampton-in-Arden. The route will cross Meriden Road and the River Blythe on a viaduct. It will then run in a cutting under Diddington Lane and the A45 Coventry Road near Bickenhill. To enable us to continue with our construction activities, we will be carrying out trial hole surveys. In order to complete these works safely, daytime off-peak closures of Diddington Lane will be put in place. These measures will provide a safe working environment for both our workforce and road users.

Diddington Lane off-peak closures:

• Each weekday from Wednesday 24 September to Friday 26 September 2025 between 9.30am and 3.30pm

Access to Diddington Lane properties and businesses –  Access to all properties will be maintained throughout these works, with the support of traffic marshals where required:

• South end of Diddington Lane – Access via B4102 Meriden Road.
• Station Farm – Access via B4102 Meriden Road, assisted by traffic marshals.
• Hampton Hill Farm, Diddington Farm and Diddington Manor – Access via A452 Kenilworth Road onto Diddington Lane, maintained during off-peak closures with the assistance of traffic marshals.
