UPDATE: All M3 Eastbound Lanes Reopen at M25 Junction 2

⚠️ TRAFFIC

Emergency resurfacing work is under way on the M3 eastbound at junction 2 following an earlier collision, with all lanes now operational but residual delays expected.

All lanes have reopened on the M3 eastbound at the M25 junction 2 (Swanley) after an earlier collision caused significant disruption to traffic flow. Emergency resurfacing work is now taking place on the affected section as recovery and maintenance crews clear the incident.

Drivers approaching the area should expect residual delays of approximately 10 minutes as traffic builds up through the junction during the recovery period. The congestion is typical following collision incidents as vehicles pass through the reduced-capacity work zone.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time for their journeys through this corridor and to exercise caution when approaching the work site. Traffic conditions are expected to gradually improve as the resurfacing operation progresses and recovery vehicles are moved away from the carriageway.

If you’re travelling on the M3 eastbound towards the M25, monitor live traffic updates as conditions may change. Consider alternative routes if possible during peak hours whilst emergency maintenance is ongoing.
