Date for third weekend closure of M25 in Surrey revealed
Drivers are again warned to expect delays and only travel if necessary
Drivers are being warned of more disruption as National Highways have revealed when the M25 will shut again in Surrey for a whole weekend.
It will close for a third time between junctions 10 and 11 from 9pm Friday 12 July to 6am Monday 15 July 2024.
During the closure a bridge will be built and installed on the western gyratory of the roundabout at Junction 10.
The bridge is made up of 68 beams, each weighing 16 tonnes, and another four beams weighing 40 tonnes.
The previous closure in May saw identical work being carried out on the eastern gyratory.
Jonathan Wade, National Highways Senior Project Manager, said:
“The previous two closures have gone well with significant progress being made during both.
“We would urge all drivers to follow the official diversion route as this is the best chance of reaching your destination in good time. Please ignore your satnavs and follow our diversion route instead.”
This is the third of five full weekend closures of the M25 to take place with a further two due later this year.
Local residents, holidaymakers, concertgoers and sports fans should plan their journeys in advance and make sure they allow extra time or make alternative travel arrangements.
