UREGENT TELFORD SMW TRAFFIC NEWS!!

[Radish]

Hi guys

Just spotted this info on the Traffic England site under their disruptions page at: http://www.trafficengland.com/disruptions.aspx#ds


Roadworks - Bridge Repairs
The M54 westbound will be closed between junctions J2 and J3 due to bridge repairs, from 8 pm on 10 November 2012 to 10 am on 11 November 2012.

There will, obviously, be diversions posted by the Highways Agency but it may delay you if you are driving in on the Sunday - especially those aiming to arrive for the 0800 opening.

for any one coming from the M5 M6   this will hopefully help.
head to Wolverhampton and once you get on the ring road  look for the A41 hollyhead road ( maked M54  and cosford) itll drop you on at J3  the turning for the A41 is by the Banks brewery site.

Best option would be to try and get a lift with the FAA Lynx.......... 

Steel Pemguin's diversion works pretty well as I've used that NUMEROUS times when the M5-M6 junction is clagged up, which is quite often with the never-ending roadworks they have at the north end of the M5!

Cheers Rad and Martin, this will affect me.

I've just checked the website, the information has been updated:

The M54 westbound will be closed between the M6 and junction J1 due to roadworks, between 8 pm and 6 am, from 7 November 2012 to 16 November 2012.

If it's accurate, it hopefully shouldn't affect punters unless you're going really early or leaving really late.  It might impact traders or those setting up.  I'd suggest checking the day before you travel.

Good to know this in advance.

thank-you for the pointers guys.

methinks the A5 could be busy both days!
