Operation Brock Activated: Chaos on M20 as Traffic Screeches to Halt
Operation Brock is live on the M20 in Kent, Highways England confirmed today (Monday 28 October). But within hours, traffic has already come to a grinding halt.
Broken Down Lorry Blocks Main Carriageway
A wide load truck, diverted under the contraflow scheme, has caused major disruption by blocking the main carriageway. Meanwhile, a broken-down vehicle inside the 12-mile contraflow forced Highways officers to shut one lane, adding to the chaos.
Second Crash Adds To Motorist Mayhem
As if that wasn’t enough, a crash just after Junction 9 is causing fresh delays for drivers rejoining the M20 after the contraflow. It’s a nightmare start for Operation Brock, with traffic jams worsening by the minute.
