M6 Toll Road - Birmingham bypass (M6toll)

project in operation

The M6 toll road  M6toll is a 43km, dual three-lane tolled motorway in the West Midlands region of the UK. The road is strategically located at the centre of the UK motorway network. The road primarily serves as a congestion relief road to bypass the heavily congested un-tolled M6 motorway around Birmingham. M6toll is part of the national network and was built by Midland Expressway, who will operate and manage it until 2054 when it will be handed back to the Government.The project had an initial investment of GBP 900 million (USD 1.15 billion) in order to design and build the M6 Toll Motorway, which opened to traffic in December 2003, on budget and six weeks ahead of schedule.
