JUNCTION 6 improvement work on the M5 is set to continue next week, with various traffic management measures to be in place.

As part of the improvement scheme the roundabout, slip roads and all the approaches will be widened.

An extra lane will be added to the roundabout, as will traffic signals on the A449 and the A4538 Pershore Lane south approaches.

Between 8pm on Monday, June 4 and 6am the following day lane one of the A449 eastbound will be shut and two-way traffic lights will be in place on A4538 Pershore Lane.

Narrow lanes will also be in place on the junction roundabout 24 hours a day from June 4 until at least June 17, as will a free recovery service.

A speed limit reduction from 50 to 30mph, as well as a barrier in place on the M5 and A4440 approaches will also be in place.

The scheme aims to improve journey times, reduce congestion and support local and strategic economic growth.

The work will complement other improvements at junctions 5 and 7, and began on April 23.
