News on HS2 in Solihull

In 2020, we will improve and expand sections of the existing road network on and around Northway Island and the B4438, and construct new routes on HS2 land, which will connect to four new highway bridges. These road improvements will ensure that when the future station is operational, the network is fit for purpose.

In preparation for our highways development programme, we will carry out a series of earthworks, surveys and utility works, which will be phased to avoid overburdening the network. From March, we will dig a number of trenches, near Northway, to divert existing utilities. To conduct this safely, we need to install temporary overnight lane closures from Monday 23 March for approximately 4 weeks, on Northway and the B4438. You will be able to travel along these roads throughout our works.

For more detail, please see the full notification of the works on Northway , including a map showing the location of the works.
