LMJV have been working in the area for a number of years, to remodel and improve sections of the existing road network near Northway Island and create new routes on HS2 land. These road improvements will ensure that when the future station is operational, the local road network is fit for purpose. Upon completion, a new T-junction will replace Northway Island. A new ‘longabout’ is already in operation outside the Holiday Inn Express NEC, on the way to the National Exhibition Centre.

Off peak single lane closures

In order to complete this phase of the works, from the 24 October to 11 November 2022, there will be occasional, temporary, off-peak single lane closures installed around the longabout, on parts of Northway Island, into Birmingham Business Park, on the way to the NEC, and along short sections of the B4438 and Northway.

These traffic measures will be installed as and when required depending on the progress of the programme. These lane closures will not be in place every day, and will only be operational between 9am and 3.30pm. Please note: You will STILL be able to travel on all routes.
