The Black Country New Road (or Black Country Spine Road) is a major road which runs through the West Midlands of England. History The route was first planned during the 1980s, as a trunk road to link the planned Black Country Route at Bilston with Junction 1 of the M5 motorway in West Bromwich. In the early 1990s, it received impetus from the Black Country Development Corporation. The first phase of the route was completed in July 1995, beginning with a half-mile stretch of dual carriageway linking the A41/A4038 junction in Moxley with the simultaneously completed final phase of Black Country Route. The second phase was completed in November 1995.

The third and final phase of the route was completed in the spring of 1997, wi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
