What we are doing
We previously advised that to allow us to to complete ongoing construction works on the M42 Water Orton Viaducts, we will be installing overnight road closures to change the traffic management layout at the Water Orton Viaducts to relocate works into the central reservation from Monday 29 September to Friday 3 October.
We are installing overnight road closures to ensure that impact from our work to the motorway link is reduced as much as possible.
There will be a lane closure of M42 southbound carriageway from junction 9 to junction 8 leading into a full carriageway closure of the westbound carriageway of M42-M6 link road on each night.
To ensure the safety of our workforce, we will be installing an overnight road closure on the M42/M6 Link Road eastbound and westbound carriageway for six nights, from 9pm each night and re-opening at 5am each morning. See below a breakdown of these overnight closures:
Westbound Carriageway
• Wednesday 1 October
• Thursday 2 October
Eastbound carriageway
• Friday 3 October
• Saturday 4 October
• Sunday 5 October
