What we are doing

As part of our continued work to construct HS2, Balfour Beatty Vinci (BBV) will be completing a considerable amount of work along the M42, M6 Toll and M42 M6 link road, in areas near Water Orton and Coleshill over the next three years. This will include enabling works and the construction of three structures that will span the strategic road network. These structures are the M42 M6 Link Road Viaducts, that will carry the HS2 railway over the M42 M6 link road and the Water Orton Viaducts and Coleshill Triple Box Structure, that will both carry the HS2 railway over the M42 and M6 toll.

In order to continue works on the Water Orton Viaducts, BBV will install long term traffic management along areas of the M42 M6 link road and the M42 and M6 Toll. This will provide the space needed for us to work safely next to the motorway to complete the construction of the piers. To install the long-term traffic management, we will put in place two phases of overnight temporary traffic management for short periods.
