M6: Repairs and Maintenance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, with reference to the Answer of 20 April 2026 to Question 125234, when the Department expects to provide feedback on the latest proposals for temporary slip roads at M6 Junction 38 from National Highways, and whether that feedback will be published in the public domain.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
National Highways has recently shared with stakeholders that it will be undertaking an options review to look at the different options for how to carry this important project out. Once this process is complete, National Highways will undertake a non-statutory public options consultation, which is likely to take place in winter 2026/27. Given the scale, duration and complexity of this scheme, National Highways is keen to explore all opportunities that could mitigate the disruption of this vital project.
