HOT TRAFFIC / ROAD NEWS ....... PLEASE READ

Those of you who travel to the show via the M40 (Junc 12) and then go up the B4100 for a short distance and then turn right onto the B4455 (Fosse Way) may have heard that the B4455 is closed due to work on a railway bridge. The organisers have now been advised that there is now traffic lights with single file flow over the bridge. However, the diversion signs may well still be in place.

Depending on traffic volumes there could be a delay at the lights but it is worth waiting rather than going all the way round the diversion. The diversion will send you along the B4451 through the village of Bishops Itchington and then onto the A425.

DISCLAIMER. The organisers have no control should the contractors choose to close the road again but we do not believe this will happen.

Just to clarify ...... I believe the road on the B4455 (Fosse Way) goes UNDER the railway bridge ........ just in case some of you think you are driving upside down !!!!!!!

or have overdone your daily rum allowance

Yes and No - but mainly YES - just don't use it late at night as more often than not it's closed as I have found out far to many times!!!

And IGNORE your SAT NAV or you will end up on the wrong motorway :)

Already packed, loaded and ready to roll tomorrow morning. Looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend considering I missed last year's show due to work related detachment.
Some big WW1 battleships and cruisers will be on our stand this year to commemorate Jutland, can't wait to see them all together!

I saw pictures of your beauty's whilst deployed and am looking forward to see them for real. We have one of large scale RAF boats on the stand this year, she is our second model boat that Dad and I built together 10 years ago and it's the first time she's been displayed at Warwick.
