M6 disruption causing congestion for motorists
Motorists are experiencing delays on the M6 motorway today (Tuesday, 21 April).
This has caused significant congestion for motorists due to a stranded vehicle on the motorway.


Motorists are expecting “severe delays” of up to 23 minutes between Coleshill and the Spaghetti Junction.
According to AA Traffic, there is “Severe delays of 23 minutes and delays increasing on M6 Northbound between J4 M42 J7 (Coleshill) and J6 A38 Tyburn Road (Spaghetti Junction). Average speed ten mph”.
Similarly, West Midlands Roads, has said in a social media post that the “M6 northbound between J5 and J6 Birmingham Live lane(s) closed. Stranded vehicle. Congestion is forming on the approach. Expect delays.”
Motorists are urged to plan ahead to divert from these diversions.
