The £300 million expansion of a technology park which could lead to thousands of new jobs has taken a big step forward.
More than £6 million of funding has been secured to improve road access to the MIRA Technology Park on the Leicestershire/Warwickshire border.
The cash will be used to open up large areas of new development land next to the Horiba MIRA vehicle test track and R&D facilities just off the A5 between Hinckley and Nuneaton.
