The section from the M54 interchange down to Junction 7 Great Barr is the worst for jams in the region.

In second place, based on research by traffic firm TomTom, was the A38m Aston Expressway, while the M42 from J2 Hopwood Park to the Junction 7 M6 Interchange was third on the list.

Other nightmare routes include the A5 Watling Street from Staffordshire to Brownhills and the A454 Black Country Route from Pleck Road, Walsall, to Bilston Road, Willenhall.

The southbound stretch of the M6 passing through Junction 10 Walsall was found to be the slowest highway in the West Midlands.
