M25 Faces Second Major Weekend Closure Amid Bridge Construction

Motorists are urged to adhere to diversion routes as the M25 shuts down between junctions 9 and 10, with potential disruptions due to high weekend temperatures.

The M25 closure, part of a series of five, aims to facilitate the construction of a new bridge, requiring extensive diversions through Surrey and Greater London.
Traffic flow reduced significantly during the previous closure, but authorities warn against complacency given the more complex nature of this weekend's work.
Drivers ignoring official diversion routes risk incurring ULEZ charges, with heightened enforcement around compliance.
The closure coincides with potentially the hottest day of the year, exacerbating travel disruptions as more motorists may hit the roads.
Special arrangements are in place for certain destinations within the closure zone, including escorted access to specific service areas.
