Overnight closures for M2 bridge work
Comments |
The Medway Bridge on the M2 will be undergoing regular
maintenance inspections from this week.
The Highways Agency will
be inspecting the bridge and the M2 between junctions two
and three until May 26.
Overnight lane closures will be in
place while the inspections are done.
Bala Vishnabala, structures project
manager for the Highways Agency, said: "This inspection work is
essential for the ongoing maintenance of the M2 Medway
Bridge.
"If it is well maintained then
unplanned delays affecting users' journeys will be kept at low
levels.
"Most of the inspection work is
being carried out overnight to keep delays for drivers to a
minimum."
Work began on the coastbound
carriageway on Monday and will continue until April 23.
Two of the three lanes of the
coastbound M2 between junctions one and two will be shut and there
will be a 50mph speed limit in place from now until Saturday, March
27.
The next stage of work will include
closing the coastbound M2 junction two entry slip road.
