This is the staggered junction of Welsh Road, to right and left (out of shot), Offchurch Lane ahead continuing as Long Itchington Road behind the camera. Originally there was a railway bridge here with a two-way junction at either end. In time, the bridge was removed and the railway cutting filled in to form the present junction. It is fast, unpredictable and risky: remodelling as part of the HS2 works should make it safer.
