New M54 link road to ease congestion gets the green light
Birmingham Post
|July 10, 2025
A MAJOR new road project aimed at easing congestion in the West Midlands has been given the go ahead.
-
The Government has awarded the green light to the M54-M6 link road near Wolverhampton.
At present, drivers can stay on the M54 to its end in Essington, northeast of Wolverhampton, and join the M6 southbound directly but cannot do the same for northbound routes.
Instead, they have to exit the motorway at either junctions two or one and travel through local villages via the A449 or A460 before rejoining the M6 north.
The new link road will be around 1.6 miles in length and run from junction one of the M54 to junction 11 of the M6.
