Though this development is supposed to be making a feature of the river Sherbourne, it seems to be limiting how much it can be opened up. If the river were directed through the present green space, it would make a riverside park through to Millennium Square - once the site of a mill pool http://www.historiccoventry.co.uk/engravings/mill-dam.php

The Warwick Rd appears to be shown two way here . The section between here and J6 is two way for buses, taxis and bikes, and towards town only for cars.

Station opening has been delayed till (probably) September (2015) http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/delayed-ricoh-arena-railway-station-9384611
