Incorrect signage
Reported via mobile in the Sign issue (NH) category anonymously at 12:14, Wed 8 September 2021
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 2987592.
Whilst travelling London bound last night between jct 6 and M26 interchange lanes 1,2 and 3 were red cross lanes and 40 mph limit. Traffic was continuing in this lane for approx 3 miles. There was no filter lane for Leybourne jct even though it was open also after that junction traffic started to re-enter lanes 1,2 and 3 and started to accelerate back to national speed. There were HGV's still in lane 4 along with myself as at no point was there an end of restrictions sign even though many signs were passed. This caused a lot of confusion and frustration and were we in a 40mph limit or 70mph. Unknown by most road users. Both dangerous, confusing and potentially fines for being unaware of road speed limits or lane blockage.

It's nice to know that it isn't just me that has the problem. They claim they're about safety but whoever manages these signs are clueless and dangerous
