And no expense has been spared by HS2, the cause of the diversion. A Toucan crossing, gates, even a mounting block for horse and pony riders. It is a refreshing change to see pedestrians and cyclists (and equestrians) treated so generously, but it is not hard to see why the high speed railway has gone vastly over budget if this largesse has been repeated all the way from Birmingham to London. There is a similar crossing at Burton Green which is temporary, as the completed work there is to include a tunnel under the road for the Greenway. The 87 bus from Coventry to Solihull is approaching from the left.
