On Thursday 20th September, Storm Bronagh deposited around two weeks of rainfall on Staffordshire.
This caused degradation of the hard shoulder of the M6 between Junctions 14 and 15 of the M6. Between these junctions, the hard shoulder is carrying live traffic whilst we upgrade the central reserve barrier.
In order to minimise any further damage we closed the affected lane and its adjacent lane overnight in both directions on Friday 21st September. We did not divert traffic off the motorway on this night.
To minimise any further disruption, we repaired the damaged surface during the overnight closure on 22nd September, whilst we also dismantled Creswell Home Farm bridge. Both operations were successfully completed and we will reopen the M6 in both directions by 7 AM.
Fair play to the people working on the bridge removal, it's been done bar a few pillars and the M6 is now re-open between j14&15...
Somebody had even turned off the southbound exit traffic lights.Fair play to the people working on the bridge removal, it's been done bar a few pillars and the M6 is now re-open between j14&15...
Ventured into Stafford today, pleased that the fun run didn't have any real impact on getting around.
I do try to avoid the lemming run, when I can.Fairly solid is about the best one can hope for these days.
