Subway to the Arena
This pedestrian subway leads under the A444 Jimmy Hill Way, connecting a car park to the Arena stadium and the adjoining railway station and shopping mall. The sign probably once said 'Ricoh Arena', but 'Ricoh' has been overpainted, as the company no longer sponsors the stadium, which is now the Coventry Building Society Arena. The rainbow lights and stripes are a recent addition in 2022, perhaps in preparation for the Commonwealth Games, as some of the events will be taking place in the stadium.

St Luke's Road, Holbrooks
The terraced houses on the left are caught by a burst of sunshine; one of them has recently been sold through Yopa. The 'no through road' sign is here because vehicular access to Hen Lane is blocked off.

Coventry: A444 road sign and the Ricoh Arena
The direction sign is green because it is a primary route (trunk road) and is therefore marked in green on road atlases. The white panels for the side-road destinations denote that these are local names on non-primary routes; these would previously have been on a separate sign white in colour, but the system was changed a few years ago.

Welcome to Coventry
During the 2012 Olympics, the Ricoh Arena was renamed the City of Coventry Stadium and hosted preliminary round football matches. The footbridge over the A444 was covered in Olympic livery. Here it is viewed from the north.

Toadflax on the bypass
This is common toadflax, Linaria vulgaris, seen growing on the verge of the A444 Jimmy Hill Way in September 2020. For more on toadflax, see the Wildlife Trust site https://www.wildlifetrusts.org/wildlife-explorer/wildflowers/common-toadflax and Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linaria_vulgaris , which comments that this plant is ruderal, a coloniser of recently disturbed ground. It is native to Britain.
