They are making a right dogs dinner of the road configuration of Birmingham Road from Bacons End to Coleshill. Be interesting to see the construction progress. Although if the road surface gets as bad as Coleshill Heath Road, then they would be better off resurfacing it
I believe there are also very few places on the UK Railway network where Tilt is allowed - the obvious line allowing Tilt being the WCML (particularly the WCML South) where the 390s and 221s run
