Traffic Management
Work has now been completed on all six junctions, and so there will be no more traffic management updates for the main construction.
However a recent accident at the Blyth junction caused extensive fire damage and over the coming weeks there will be a need for traffic management in order to carry out repairs to the new junction. Information about that traffic management will be updated on this page.
Please note that this information is not updated in real time. Please check Traffic England for the latest information and current traffic conditions.
