New junction arrangements on the A30 near M5 Junction 29 have come into operation as Devon County Council’s improvement scheme nears completion.
The new traffic-signal junction, which is just to the east of the M5 overbridge, connects the new link road from the C832 (old A30) at Blackhorse to the A30. It provides motorists with direct access to the M5 southbound for the first time.
Traffic will now also be able to travel in both directions on the connecting link road, and the Blackhorse on-slip to the A30 westbound will be permanently closed.
