What we are doing

UPDATE – We previously advised that the road will be closed on 17 and 18 of September to prepare the verge ready for the future installation of temporary safety barriers. We are now proposing to extend this closure until 20 September to install the barrier at the same time.

BBV have been significantly reconfiguring the junction of the A446 Stonebridge Road and A452 Chester Road near Birmingham Business Park to facilitate the construction of a bridge that will take the new railway over the M42. This work is largely complete but before we can fully reopen both lanes of the road, we will need to install temporary safety barriers.

Overnight, between 8pm and 6am on Tuesday 17 September and Wednesday 18 September we will close the northbound carriageway of the A452 in front of Melbicks garden centre so that we can safely prepare the verges for the installation of temporary safety barriers.

A fully signed diversion will be in place.
