Attention all drivers! If you're planning on taking the M25 at Junction 15, you might want to reconsider your route. It seems that starting from tonight, some of the busiest roads in the UK will be facing closures and roadworks. This includes the main bridge connecting England and Wales, so be prepared for some possible delays.
Now, don't worry too much, because most of these closures will be happening during the quieter hours of the night. But for those of you who like to take a late drive, be aware that these diversions could affect your journey. So, it might be a good idea to stay home or allow for some extra time if you do have to hit the road.
You might be wondering which motorways will be affected by these closures. Well, we have the answers for you. The M1 southbound will be completely closed from Junction 31 to Junction 30, along with the surrounding slip roads, from 8pm tonight until 6am on Monday. And for those of you traveling on the M25, both directions will see some disruptions as part of ongoing works.
But don't worry, unlike previous weekends, there won't be any full-weekend closures on the M25 this year. However, there will still be some major restrictions, such as the closure of the clockwise carriageway from Junction 8 to Junction 9 tonight, as well as the closure of the Junction 27 link road to M11 Southbound Junction 6 on both sides of the carriageway.
Last weekend, we saw a successful closure on the M25 at Junctions 10-11, thanks to many drivers avoiding the area. And while there won't be any more full-weekend closures, there will be some 12-hour closures throughout the year, so keep that in mind. And for those of you traveling on the A3, be aware that some roadworks will also affect that area.
If you want more specific information about these closures, be sure to visit National Highways. And remember, these roadworks will continue throughout the week in various areas. For example, the clockwise carriageway between Junction 20 to Junction 21 will be closed from 10pm on July 23 to 5:30am the next day. And for those in Manchester, the M60 ring road will be closed anticlockwise from Junction 5 to Junction 4 from 9pm tonight until 5am tomorrow.
Lastly, for those of you traveling on the M4, be prepared for some major disruptions for three nights starting from Tuesday. The Prince of Wales Bridge over the River Severn will be closed eastbound from Junction 23 to Junction 22 from 8pm until 6am. So, plan your journeys accordingly and stay informed about any possible closures. Thank you for your cooperation and safe travels!
