• 8pm to 6am Friday 26 September - the closure of two lanes northbound between Thickthorn and Stoneleigh.
• 8pm to 6am Saturday 27 September, the closure of the southbound slip onto the A46 at the Stoneleigh junction and the closure of two lanes between Festival Island and Thickthorn
• Saturday 4, Sunday 5, Saturday 18 and on Sunday 19 October 8pm to 6am, a full closure of the A46 between Festival Island and Thickthorn Island.

Routes 41 and 42, introduced as part of a two-year pilot, will stop operating from Friday 26 September 2025 due to low usage. To minimise disruption, the University has worked with National Express to introduce additional early morning journeys on existing routes, covering areas previously served by 41 and 42 and providing connections to campus.

Full details of the new and updated services are available [HERELink opens in a new window].

From Monday 18th August - Saturday 20th September, there will be temporary traffic restrictions on the A429 Kenilworth road between the Gibbet Hill road roundabout - Common Lane junction.

• Temporary traffic lights will be in place from Monday 18th August - Tuesday 26th August.

The University supported Coventry City Council鈥檚 proposal to amend speed limits on adjacent and adjoining roads, including revoking the existing 40mph speed limit on Stoneleigh Road and Gibbet Hill Road.

This change has now been implemented, meaning both roads have reverted to a 30mph national speed limit. Reducing the speed limit from 40mph to 30mph is expected to lower traffic speeds, which will, in turn, help reduce traffic noise and improve conditions for residents, cyclists, and pedestrians. 

The speed limit on campus is set at 20mph to prioritise the safety of all road users, particularly pedestrians and cyclists. A lower speed limit can reduce the likelihood and severity of collisions, creating a safer environment for students, staff, and visitors.
