National Highways will be carrying out work to repair the southbound carriageway of the M6 between junctions 34 and 33. The works will include resurfacing and replacing road markings and road studs. This is to ensure that they keep the network safe and operational, as well as improving journeys.

Below is a breakdown of the work and the traffic management arrangements that will be put in place.
M6 junction 35 to junction 34 – 14th to 15th March – Overnight closure of M6 southbound between junctions 35 and 34. Daytime lane closures with a 50mph temporary speed limit

National Highways aim to complete our work on time, but unforeseen circumstances such as bad weather may mean slight changes occur at short notice. Every effort will be made to ensure disruption is kept to a minimum.
However, these works will inevitably generate some noise and inconvenience and National Highways apologise in advance for any disturbance that they may cause.
