Updates

  • We appreciate you getting in touch with us, and we apologise that these works caused disruption to your journey. We understand that closing parts of a motorway is disruptive and it’s not a decision we take lightly. The lane closure and overnight closures on this section of the M3 have been implemented so we could investigate road surface depressions in lane one that were identified following a routine inspection. The current lane one closure is required to protect the safety of the travelling public and to permit specialist surveys, and to undertake investigation of all elements of the drainage system under the carriageway. At present we’re unable to provide an update of the timeframe for when lane one can be safely re-opened. Please be assured that once all surveys are completed and reviewed a programme of works will be carried out to allow us to reopen the lane safely. We apologise for any inconvenience that this delay may cause.
