This merges directly onto the M6 in both directions, as well as the <a href="/wiki/A5127_road" title="A5127 road">A5127</a> and A38 surface streets, via an intertwined series of flyovers, meaning there is an uninterrupted run from the motorway and these suburban feeder roads all the way to the southern ring road junction. The original route is now taken by the A5127, starting and terminating at the same points but providing a somewhat slower ride through mixed industrial and residential areas with several roundabout and traffic light controlled at-grade crossings, and since signed and re-engineered with a focus on local access, public transport and non-motorway traffic. </p><p>Beyond Salford Circus, the A38 used to pass through <a href="/wiki/Erdington" title="Erdington">Erdington</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wylde_Green" title="Wylde Green">Wylde Green</a> and particularly <a href="/wiki/Sutton_Coldfield" title="Sutton Coldfield">Sutton Coldfield</a> town centres (and then Four Oaks, Mere Green and Shenstone) on its way towards Lichfield, before the extensive Sutton Coldfield Bypass was built.

It is not, however, well-grade separated; all junctions as far as Minworth are at-grade, and although most minor local roads pass over or under the rural section without interacting with it at all (or at least are limited to left-in/left-out access only), a new underpass has been built at Weeford, and many gaps have been stopped up, there still remains some flat junctions with major crossroads and right-turn gaps in the central reservation even as far as the Lichfield junction itself (beyond which, the road is of a somewhat higher standard). </p><p>In Erdington and Sutton Coldfield, the original A5127 has been bypassed a second time by more minor urban relief roads, easing congestion in and allowing partial pedestrianisation of their respective town centre shopping areas. A further bypass between Sutton centre and the northern junction with the A453 Tamworth Road has long been under consideration to remove pressure from the narrow, mediaeval "high street" section (that features a pair of historic coaching inns and was, originally, part of the A38), but no actual plans have yet been confirmed even after many decades of discussion. </p><p>The bypass itself has been partly superseded, initially by the M42 further to the east, and in more recent years by the <a href="/wiki/M6_Toll" title="M6 Toll">M6 Toll</a>, which intersects it at junction T3, runs directly alongside part of the former A446 section between Bassett's Pole and Weeford Island, where it veers off (and has a further junction, T4) to shadow the <a href="/wiki/A5_road_(Great_Britain)" title="A5 road (Great Britain)">A5</a> instead, also crossing the A5127 (at the limited-access junction T5) a few miles later on.

Also, the A5127 out of Sutton picks up the Roman road route a little north of Mere Green (having itself diverted via Metchley Fort, the modern suburbs of Perry Barr and Kingstanding, then Sutton Park and Four Oaks/Little Aston), and follows it to Lichfield. The point south of Lichfield where it interchanges with the A5 (once a staggered junction, altered to a simpler crossroads roundabout by the Wall Bypass, then complicated once more by the coming of the A38/A5148 and M6 Toll) marks the crossing of two Roman streets, with the old A5 continuing to the historic fort of Wall, a mile or so after branching off to the west. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Staffordshire">Staffordshire</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=A38_road&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Staffordshire"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The road (now <a href="/wiki/A5127_road" title="A5127 road">A5127</a>) from the county boundary at Shenstone Woodend, through <a href="/wiki/Shenstone,_Staffordshire" title="Shenstone, Staffordshire">Shenstone</a> to Lichfield was one of the roads of the <a href="/wiki/Lichfield_Turnpike_Trust" class="mw-redirect" title="Lichfield Turnpike Trust">Lichfield Turnpike Trust</a>, established in 1729.<sup id="cite_ref-LichAct_66-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-LichAct-66"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, this section of the old A38 has been replaced by new dual carriageways. </p><p>Beyond Lichfield, the old A38 (now A5127) joins the Roman <a href="/wiki/Ryknild_Street" class="mw-redirect" title="Ryknild Street">Ryknild Street</a> at <a href="/wiki/Streethay" title="Streethay">Streethay</a><sup id="cite_ref-Margary305_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Margary305-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and immediately after that A5127 joins the present A38.
