- Join the A20 westbound toward Maidstone and continue to Junction 8 of the M20.
How to Get Back on Track
- At the M20 roundabout, follow signs for Junction 7 westbound, heading for London.
- Exit at Junction 7, then merge onto the A249 towards M2 Junction 5.
- At Junction 5, rejoin the M2 and carry on your journey.
Plan Ahead to Avoid Delays
This closure is causing major disruption. If your route is affected, allow extra travel time or consider altering your plans altogether. A delay now beats being stuck in traffic later.
