ALERT: M3 Eastbound at M25 Junction Remains Closed This Evening

⚠️ TRAFFIC

The M3 eastbound at Junction 2 (M25 interchange) is closed for emergency resurfacing works, with traffic diverted via slip roads.

The M3 eastbound carriageway at Junction 2, where it meets the M25, remains closed this afternoon as emergency resurfacing takes place. This closure affects Kent residents and commuters travelling northbound on the M3 towards London or those attempting to access the M25 from this location.

To navigate around the closure, traffic is being diverted via the exit and entry slip roads at Junction 2. Drivers leaving the M3 eastbound or rejoining the route are advised to use these designated diversion routes. This temporary arrangement will remain in place until later this evening when the emergency resurfacing work is completed.

Motorists approaching the affected junction should expect delays of approximately 10 minutes as traffic filters through the diversion system. With the closure affecting a key interchange between two major motorways, congestion may build during peak travel times. Allow extra journey time if you need to travel through this area, and consider using alternative routes if possible.

Emergency services and highway teams are on site managing the closure and resurfacing operations. Road users are reminded to follow all diversion signage and proceed with caution in the affected area.
