Road Closure: NANSEN ROAD — Birmingham

Motorists in Birmingham are being warned of a major disruption to their journeys as Nansen Road in the city will be closed from 26 October 2026 at 00:00 until 30 November 2026 at 00:00. The closure, which is being carried out by Birmingham City Council, is due to major works, categorised as PAA, and is expected to have a medium severity impact on traffic in the area. Drivers who normally use Nansen Road should start making alternative arrangements to avoid delays.

Birmingham City Council has announced the closure as part of its ongoing efforts to maintain and improve the city's road network. The council is responsible for ensuring that the city's roads are safe and well-maintained, and this closure is necessary to allow for the required works to be carried out. While the closure may cause some inconvenience to drivers, it is an important step in keeping the city's roads in good condition.

Drivers who are affected by the closure are advised to plan their journeys in advance and to allow extra time to reach their destinations. Alternative routes are available, and motorists are encouraged to use these to avoid the closed section of Nansen Road. It is also a good idea to check traffic apps and websites for the latest information on traffic conditions before setting out. This will help to minimise delays and ensure that journeys are as smooth as possible.

By taking a few simple precautions, such as planning journeys in advance and using alternative routes, drivers can help to reduce the impact of the closure and ensure that their journeys are as smooth as possible.
