HJS2 contractors Balfour Beatty VINCI continue with their ongoing construction work on the M42/M6 Link Road Viaducts. They will be extending the existing long-term traffic management measures on both the eastbound and westbound carriageways of the M42/M6 Link Road. 

On the eastbound carriageway, the hard shoulder will be closed from the M6 southbound at Junction 4A to the M42 (both northbound and southbound). 

On the westbound carriageway, the hard shoulder and one additional lane will be closed from the M42 southbound at Junction 8 to the M6 northbound at Junction 4A. 

A temporary 50mph speed limit will be in place on both carriageways for the duration of these works to ensure the safety of the road users and our workforce, the long-term traffic management will be in place from 1 July 2025 until 31 December 2027.

 

Long-term traffic management is now in place on the M42/M6 link road.

This involves closing lane one and the hard shoulder of the M42/M6 link road southbound connector.

This will reduce the lane availability from two running lanes of traffic to one and will be in place from 24 August 2023 until further notice.

For more information contact HS2.
