HS2 Notification: Temporary 24-hour lane closures will be installed along the M42 from 8pm on Friday 15 January 2021 to 5am on Monday 18 January 2021

When the future HS2 Interchange Station is operational, four new highways bridges will connect the current road network to new routes we are creating. The first of these new highways bridges was safely installed in August over the M42 , and the second was installed in October over the A446 . In 2021, we will carry out various activities to fully reinstate these roads such as drainage connections.

To carry out this work safely, we’ll install temporary 24-hour lane closures along the M42 from 8pm on Friday 15 January 2021 to 5am on Monday 18 January 2021. Our contractors may be on site up to an hour before and after those times to set up and close down the site. Lane closure direction will alternate throughout the weekend, and the hard shoulder within the closure extents will also be closed.

You will still be able to travel along all routes in both directions.

You can view the works notification , including a map, here.
