What we are doing
The new railway will approach Birmingham City Centre via a series of viaducts and bridge structures, crossing over roads, existing railways, and canals. One of the key locations where the railway will pass is over the city’s ring road at Lawley Middleway, between Garrison Circus and Curzon Circus.
To minimise disruption to road users, the bridge is being constructed adjacent to the road and will be slid into place in August. We will provide more information about this major operation can be found here :https://www.hs2.org.uk/work-items/overnight-closure-of-lawley-middleway-a4540/
In preparation, we need to install temporary structures to help guide the bridge into position. To carry out this work safely, lane one on the southbound (clockwise) carriageway of Lawley Middleway will be closed overnight.
This closure will take place between 8pm and 5:30am for seven nights, beginning on 28 July until 3 August
