Multimillion-pound improvements to a busy motorway junction have made no difference, unhappy residents claim.

People living close to the junction 10 roundabout, on the M6 in Walsall, said they believed a 拢78m scheme to cut congestion had been a waste of money.

Neighbours said traffic problems had persisted despite three years of work to install a four-lane system and widened slip roads.

National Highways defended the project, which is close to completion, and said its full benefits would become clear later this year.

The improvements were designed to support economic growth by reducing journey times for drivers on roads surrounding the island.

But Ian Leadsam, who has lived in the area for two decades, believes the outcome is not what residents were promised.
