This is the main route from Wolverhampton to Birmingham. Use it only if you have tons of patience. The road is filled with a seemingly unending string of traffic-lights all the way to Dudley where it deals with a congested roundabout then continues as the Wolverhampton New Road to Quinton where it meets the main road from Birmingham to J3 of the M5, passing several more sets of lights & M5 J2 on the way. If you have to travel between Wolverhampton & Birmingham park your car & go by train - its easier, quicker & ultimately cheaper.
