Travel disruption on M5 Junction 1 for 10 nights

October 30, 2023

Traffic signal upgrade works are taking place on the M5 J1 West Bromwich interchange through to Monday 6 November.

There will be temporary traffic signals during the daytime and partial lane closures during the night only affecting all approaches to the island, including the A41, Kenrick Way, and M5 slip roads.

The work takes place during the school half term when traffic is usually lighter. Any night-time lane closures will be in place between 9 pm and 6 am.

Bus

The National Express West Midlands 74 bus services crosses the motorway interchange. Buses will continue to operate, but there may be slight delays when traffic volumes increase in the area.

We advised colleagues to allow for extra time to their journey during this period. For further updates relating to roadworks across the West Midlands, please visit Transport for West Midlands.
