What we are doing

We’re preparing to build the railway

Subject to obtaining the relevant consents, we will be removing vegetation along the M42 carriageway in March to prepare for the future construction of the HS2 railway.

We’ll be starting work on Monday 7 March

To carry out this work safely, we’ll install temporary hard shoulder closures along short sections of the M42 northbound and southbound from Monday 7 March to Friday 18 March. Our working hours will be 9.30am to 3.30pm, Monday to Friday.

Our contractors may be on site up to an hour before and after those times to set up and close down the site.
