The southbound carriageway of the existing A46 between Sherbourne Fruit Farm (on the west of Vicarage Lane) and the A46/M40 Junction 15 (Longbridge) roundabout detrunked by this Order has been replaced by the new trunk road. The detrunked part of the southbound carriageway is to remain as a public highway and will be improved to form a new two way local access road.
