Is there something we should be told?

Google shows the M6 nothbound between 14 and 16 is closed until Jan 4th 2020
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the M5 works were going to be all done and dusted by the end of November......... still looked a long way off as I came through it last week . Maybe they meant next November
Remember, traffic cones are for life, not just Christmas.M5 Southbound is done the cones just need to come off and everything can get back to normal
M5 Northbound just need final sections surfaced then it will be done as well...
Is that 'normal'as in traffic at walking pace to J2?M5 Southbound is done the cones just need to come off and everything can get back to normal
We were hoping to complete the work on both sides of the viaduct by the end of November. As you are aware we have experienced heavy rainfall in recent months and this has impacted our progress, such that we haven’t been able to complete this as quickly as we had hoped.
We’re working hard to complete the remaining waterproofing on the northbound carriageway alongside the central reservation and new concrete barrier that we’ve installed. Once that work is complete, we’ll then start to remove the remaining roadworks on the northbound carriageway ahead of fully re-opening three lanes of traffic before Christmas.
The waterproofing is a critical part of the repair work and is a weather-dependant activity.
Long time coming but don't get too comfy as they will likely start on the M6J10 remodelling soon !
Nooooo they are remodeling the roundabout that sits above the junction...Didn't they do that stretch a year or so ago when they made it a 4 lane smart motorway??? Seem to remember quite often sitting for hours there as well .
Aaaah thanks for that (they were in the process of coning the northbound carriageways at J10 when I came back monday last week. Down to one lane when I crawled through. )Nooooo they are remodeling the roundabout that sits above the junction...
Its been open fully when I've used it commuting this week, but it will be started on at some pointAaaah thanks for that (they were in the process of coning the northbound carriageways at J10 when I came back monday last week. Down to one lane when I crawled through. )
They tend to start closing the carriageways off 9pm and after . Was after 10pm last week. Learnt now when gantry signs warn of ' reduce speed, workforce in road' , that it's the men about to close it off and like everyone else stick my foot down to try to get through before that final blocking off cone goes down....Nearly gone over a few toes over the yearsIts been open fully when I've used it commuting this week, but it will be started on at some point
I think when they start junction 10 I finally need to find a new job.
