Improved local webpages launched on HS2 website

HS2 Notification: Changes to traffic rerouting around Northway Island from Monday 23 August to late October 2021We are remodelling and improving sections of the existing road network in the area and creating new routes on HS2 land. These road improvements will ensure that when the future station is operational, the local road network is fit for purpose. Upon completion, a new T-junction will replace Northway Island. A new ‘longabout’ is already in operation outside the Holiday Inn Express NEC, on the way to the National Exhibition Centre (NEC).We started the creation of the new T-junction in April 2021. To enable us to continue to connect parts of the existing road network to the new routes we create, we are carrying out a series of weekend road closures in 2021 near Northway Island.On <a href="https://hs2insolihull.commonplace.is/news/hs2-notification:-possible-continuation-of-works,-requiring-a-temporary,-weekend-road-closure-on-sections-of-the-b4438-and-a452-on-saturday-21st-and-sunday-22nd-of-august-2021">Tuesday 10 August</a> , we informed you that possibly a temporary, weekend road closure would need to be installed along sections of the B4438 and A452 on Saturday 21 August and Sunday 22 August 2021. This weekend closure will no longer take place and our next weekend closure will take place in October 2021. We will confirm the details of these traffic measures in due course. To continue to remodel and improve sections of the existing road network in the area, we will install some changes to the existing traffic rerouting around Northway Island which commenced on <a href="https://www.hs2.org.uk/work-items/changes-to-traffic-rerouting-around-northway-island-from-monday-19-july-to-late-august-2021/">Monday 19 July</a> . From Monday 23 August to late October 2021, one of the short sections of Northway Island that was closed on Monday 19 July will reopen, whilst the other section remains closed. Depending on your direction of travel, you may be redirected from Northway Island, along the B4438, and back. You will still be able to access all routes and direction of travel along the B4438, A452 and Northway will be unaffected.A new direction of travel around Northway Island will be installed following this phase of our programme. We’ll inform you of any changes to the direction of travel around Northway Island before they take effect.On occasion, temporary, off-peak single lane closures will be installed between Monday 23 August and late October 2021 around the longabout, on the way to the NEC, and along short sections of the B4438.You can view the works notification, including a map, <a href="https://s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/commonplace-customer-assets/hs2insolihull/LM%20on%20behalf%20of%20HS2%20-%20Notice%20of%20revised%20traffic%20rerouting%20around%20Northway%20Island%20from%2023%20August%20to%20late%20October%202021.pdf"> here</a> .Please also note that no further news alerts will be sent from this site.Join the HS2 mailing list to continue to receive updates from HS2 about the projectWe will no longer be using this website or Commonplace to issue email updates to you.
