PREPARATIONS are underway for more roadworks on Europa Way in Leamington.
Construction of a new Left-In, Left-Out (LILO) junction will begin in early April.
The junction will provide access into new housing development The ASPS and is expected to be completed in winter 2026/27.
The ASPS development will deliver around 900 new homes, alongside a new primary school, a local centre and a park and ride facility with capacity for up to 500 vehicles.
Ahead of the main construction works, essential tree and vegetation clearance will take place along Europa Way this month, before the nesting season which typically begins in March. This advance site clearance work is expected to be completed by the end of February.
During the clearance works, two-way portable traffic signals will be in operation to manage traffic safely. The signals will cover an approximate 150-metre stretch of road at any one time and will be moved in stages as the works progress, meaning there may be several signal relocations during the clearance period.
The project follows the successful completion of the A425 Banbury Road widening scheme, which was delivered on time in December 2025 and forms part of the wider transport improvements planned for the area.
Warwickshire County Council’s transport spokesperson Coun Jennifer Warren said: “These works are an important step in delivering the infrastructure needed to support new homes and community facilities in this part of Warwickshire. We know that temporary traffic management can be frustrating, and we are grateful to residents and road users for their patience while this essential work is carried out. We will continue to do everything we can to keep disruption to a minimum and to keep people informed as the scheme progresses.”
The works are required to meet planning conditions associated with the ASPS development and will help ensure safe and suitable access for future residents, visitors and commuters.
