The Kenilworth to Berkswell Greenway: New concerns

Concerns continue to be expressed about the project to make a greenway from Kenilworth to Berkswell. Last week, the KWN reported complaints from residents unhappy with the number of trees being cut down and claiming there had not been enough consultation. This week, horse riders complained they were being left out of the plans - and off signs marking the route. What do you think about this project? Is it good for Kenilworth or do you have concerns?
Will Kenilworth get a new railway station soon?
