When joining the m6 heading south

Reported via mobile in the Roadworks (NH) category anonymously at 11:18, Mon 1 November 2021

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 3096819.

When joining the M6 at junction 15 heading south there is very little time to pick up speed as the inside lane is closed straight after junction. We had to stop and wait for a gap because a truck driver refused to give us any room. Extremely dangerous situation. We were stuck stationary for what seemed a very long time. My most frightening time on a motorway in over 40 years of driving.

  • I have had a look at the footage from my dashcam and there is only one sign which is slightly obscured by a second sign that warns the left hand lane is closed. There needs to be more signs warning drivers that the left hand lane is closed
