Weekend closure of the southbound M42 motorway junction 10 to 9

What we are doing

We recently completed extensive works on the M42 motorway between junction 9 (Dunton Interchange) and junction 10 (Tamworth Interchange) to prepare for a bridge to be moved into place over the motorway later this year. Following the works on the northbound carriageway, we will be undertaking additional works to the southbound carriageway.
The M42 is part of National Highways’ Strategic Road Network (SRN) and safety is the top priority, so we have also introduced a temporary 40mph speed restriction at this location.

When we will close the southbound M42 Motorway
We are working closely with National Highways (formerly Highways England) to plan and complete these works safely and efficiently. We will close the southbound carriageway of the M42 motorway between junction 10 (Tamworth Interchange) and junction 9 (Dunton Interchange) from:
8pm on Friday 28 January to 6am on Monday 31 January 2022.
A clearly signed diversion route will be in place over this period with advance signage in place to help remind motorists of the closure.
