A45 Intermediate Silos This construction comprises a set of 4 powder storage silos, with 2 load-out bays beneath them. Two were erected in March 2023 by Balfour Beatty Vinci (BBV) the main construction contractor on this part of the HS2 site, and the other two by Tarmac who will keep them stocked with material for the HS2 works. Initially they will store quicklime powder from plants in the Peak District, which will be used for ground stabilisation purposes around this part of the HS2 site, but may also hold some hydrated lime powder when that's needed. Their combined total capacity is nearly 2500 tonnes.

HS2 works, Solihull area, March 2023 – new bridge This is one of many roads and road junctions being remodelled along the HS2 corridor. It is to be hoped that access to the interchange station and development around it have been planned for. The photo shows a new bridge over the parting of the A452 Chester Road (ahead) and the A446 Kenilworth Road (right), a spot labelled Denbigh Corner by the A-Z. Ahead is a remodelled gyratory giving access to Birmingham Business Park. On the left the A452 is joined by the exit from the lanes that serve the Packington landfill site <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3126732">SP2085 : Packington Mountain from the north</a>.
