What we are doing
We are remodelling and improving sections of the existing road network in the area and creating new routes on HS2 land. These road improvements will ensure that when the future HS2 Interchange 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 (NEC).
We started the creation of the new T-junction in April 2021. To enable us to connect parts of the existing road network to the new routes we have created a series of weekend road closures were installed in 2022 on and around Northway Island. We will conclude this programme by installing overnight closures on and around Northway Island, the B4438 and A452 in June 2022.
We’ll be installing temporary, overnight road closures in June
These overnight closures will operate in three phases:
- We will install a temporary, overnight closure around parts of Northway Island, and along short sections of the B4438 northbound and A452 northbound and southbound each night from 9pm to 6am from Monday 6 June to Wednesday 8 June
- We will then install temporary, overnight road closure around parts of Northway Island, and along short sections of the B4438 southbound and A452 northbound from 9pm to 6am on the 9 June
- There will also be a temporary, overnight road closure around parts of Northway Island, along short sections of the B4438 southbound, the A452 northbound and Northway from 9pm to 6 am on the 10 June
A signed diversion route will be in place for road users during the overnight closures. If work progresses faster than expected, we will reopen all routes earlier if possible.
