I’m sorry to hear of the issues with litter build-up in this area. Litter is a serious issue and we share your concern about the amount of rubbish that is discarded on our roads. Influencing a change in behaviour with our partners, through a combination of clearance and campaign projects is a top priority for us.
Our campaigns involve installing a range of measures at litter hotspots which have proved to reduce littering and keep our road network cleaner for longer, such as car and lorry driver height bins at motorway service areas and anti-littering posters and signs.
On receipt of your enquiry I’ve contacted our Service Delivery Manager who has confirmed that litter collection crews have been carrying out recent collections along the M2 and several further collections, including at the slip roads as well as the main carriageway are scheduled. Therefore, I hope you will notice a significant improvement to the appearance of this area in the weeks to come.
Kind regards
Highways England

From M2 Jct 1 to Jct 3. Increasing amounts of GRAFFITI covering large areas of structures carrying the M2 AND the sliproads of adjoining junctions (eg in particular the A289, A228 up to A229 - even including the pathway along the Medway Bridge itself). This is extremely unsightly and needs urgent remedial action. (Additionally, the culprits are obviously walking on the verges of the busy M2 and its sliproads, putting both themselves and motorists in danger: the police need to take action on this.)
