Church Lane, Bickenhill
A narrow lane leading north out of the village; it joins the A45 dual carriageway just beyond the parked car, but is narrowed at this end and marked with 'No Entry' signs to discourage vehicular use.

Construction of a new footbridge
The photo shows one of the concrete bridge piers, and a section of the new bridge behind it, which is being built over the A45 as part of a scheme to improve traffic congestion around J6 of the M42 just to the east. That scheme effectively involves a new 'link road' from the M42 a mile or so to the south of here, cutting generally northwards to join into the A45 at the existing Bickenhill interchange. The idea is to reduce congestion at the busy M42/A45 roundabout, by allowing traffic from the south to head directly into Birmingham. The village of Bickenhill will effectively become isolated in a triangle of motorways/dual carriageways, and presumably this footbridge is intended to reduce that isolation, slightly.

New footbridge over the A45
Much of the bridge superstructure has been erected in the few weeks since I took Image from the opposite direction. It's being built as part of a scheme to improve traffic congestion around Junct 6 of the M42 just to the east. That scheme effectively involves a new 'link road' from the M42 a mile or so to the south of here, cutting generally northwards to join into the A45 at the existing Bickenhill interchange. The idea is to reduce congestion at the busy M42/A45 roundabout, by allowing traffic from the south to head directly into Birmingham. The village of Bickenhill will effectively become isolated in a triangle of motorways/dual carriageways, and presumably this footbridge is intended to reduce that isolation, if only slightly.

New footbridge over the A45
Essentially the same feature as Image, but here the view is from the central reservation of the A45 rather than the pathway on the north side of the road. The access ramps to each end of the new footbridge are yet to be built, but work is in progress.

A45 crosses the Rugby-Birmingham railway
The upcoming exit is the extremely important node between A45 and M42, plus the National Exhibition Centre.
