Three men have been arrested on the M6 after a witness described seeing them fall from underneath a lorry.
They were found walking along the hard shoulder near junction 8 of the northbound carriageway, close to Walsall, just before 9.15am.
Police believe the men - two 33-year-olds and a 27-year-old - are from Africa and may have hidden on the lorry travelling from Calais.
Sergeant Ian Williams, from the Central Motorway Police Group, said: "It appears that these men may have risked their lives trying to get into the country and a passing motorist reported seeing them fall from underneath a lorry and then making their way to the central reservation."
The men are in custody at a local police station and the case is being handed to the UK Border Force.
Earlier this month the mayor of Calais threatened to shut the port after 100 migrants tried to storm their way onto a ferry to Britain.
Ramps to the ferries had to be raised to prevent the men boarding the ships.
British truckers who use the port say they are subject to regular attacks from migrants desperate to make their way to the UK.
