Locationedit
Layout of Norton Canes Service Station on the M6 Toll.
Norton Canes services is located on the M6 Toll between junctions T6 and T7, and is positioned so that it can be accessed before reaching the main toll plaza in either direction. It is a single-sided site, unlike a large majority of other service areas which have separate facilities for each direction. For this reason it is possible to do a U-turn at the services; however, it is not possible to avoid the toll in that way.
The petrol forecourt is operated by BP and is located to the south of the main services building. In March 2016, a McDonald's restaurant was opened at the site.[7]
