DRIVERS are being warned that a lane will be closed on the northbound M5 this afternoon (Thursday) for essential repairs.
It is currently shut between Junction 3 (Quinton) and 4 (Lydiate Ash) so the work can be carried out.
Highways England operations manager, James Hawkes said: “We are working hard to get the lane opened as quickly as possible.
“We have closed it temporarily to allow specialist crews to conduct vital repairs and we’d like to thank motorists for their patience as the work takes place.”
Drivers are being asked to plan their journeys before setting off.
