What we are doing

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. As this work comes near to completion we will be ‘tying in’ the new junction in to the existing. In order to do this we will need to undertake two phases of works:

Phase One
Weekend closure of the southbound slip road that connects the new junction to the A446 (this slip road is also known as Biddle’s Loop), the junction will be closed from 8pm on 26 January and re-open at 6am on 29 January.

Phase Two
Following the full weekend road closure, we will re-open the newly constructed northbound carriageway to traffic and the A452 southbound will remain closed towards Melbicks Garden Centre. The road will remain closed until 6pm on 6 March 2024 while we reconstruct the carriageway.
