Both sides of the carriageway on the M42 and A42 are covered in litter. It is absolutely disgusting and I would suggest that this has built up over time with no attempts to clear it since it was reported in January.

Both sides of the carriageway on the M42 and A42 are covered in litter. It is absolutely disgusting and feels like you are driving through a rubbish tip! Meeting visitors from abroad at Birmingham Airport to drive them to Nottingham was embarrassing.

Warning sign hit, 3rd January

Wed, 03 Jan 2024 05:35:15 +0000
52.671755 -1.561645

On the southbound M42, I think between junction 11 and 10, there is a triangular hazard sign that is leaning over towards the traffic flow. This makes it difficult to read and may potentially be much more dangerous should a vehicle collide with it.

I regularly travel on the A42/M42 south. Almost every time there is overhead signage at J11 indicating Queue Ahead 60mph then 40mph. Then END. There is NEVER a queue ahead and NO NEED for the signage. It’s a huge safety issue. Yesterday the sign said M42 closed J10 to J9. Also incorrect!! It reopened 36 hours earlier. Please sort this out.
