Forthcoming planned overnight closures will affect the motorway between Junction 7 for Great Barr and Junction 10 for Walsall whilst National Highways carries out resurfacing and bridge joint repairs.

Engineers will be conducting the work to ensure 'safe travel' as the current condition of the road in that area is 'deteriorating'.

Traffic restrictions and signed diversions will be in place overnight from Monday to Friday between 8pm and 6am from April 8 until November 16, 2024.

The restrictions will include full carriageway closures and lane closures with work on the southbound route happening from April 8 to July 18, and work on the northbound from July 18 to November 16.

A spokesperson said: "We're sorry for the disruption this work may cause to your journey and we encourage drivers to plan ahead and allow extra time when travelling. All closures are subject to change at short notice due to unforeseen circumstances or poor weather conditions."
