Theres no longer any roadworks from junction 11 southwards. The roadworks start from Junction 11 north to just before 14. So you may get stuck there.

It was murder Saturday morning, closed for five hours because of an accident at junction 10.

And don't even consider going anywhere near the M6 .... ever...... for the next 2 years.

(between Jcn12 - where the queue generally starts to J7 where the actual roadworks start)

This country will be on it's knees, transport-wise, in five years.
