The route would then pass under the A5149 Chester Road to the west of Poynton and would continue south to cross the Woodford Aerodrome runway.<\/p>\n<p>At the southern end of the Poynton Relief Road scheme, the route passes to the west of Adlington Business Park before connecting into a new roundabout junction, to the west of the Adlington Travel Lodge with links to the existing A523 London Road.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme includes a cycleway and footway facilities, two new accommodation overbridges, and balancing ponds for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/building-control-news\/sustainable-drainage-systems-suds-a-reminder-of-why-they-are-important\/35754\/\">drainage<\/a>.
