A lengthy stretch of the M2 is set to close for the entirety of this coming weekend while highways engineers carry out bridge maintenance work. This dampening down with water helps to reduce dust. A 50mph speed limit is still in place on the coastbound M20 between Junction 8 (Maidstone) and Junction 9 (Ashford). The eastbound lane is still currently closed, with drivers forced to wait in traffic. Kent County Council has confirmed that the M2 remains closed while investigation works are carried out following the crash. To join the northbound carriageway, turn left, go to M20 junction 7 and the return on the A249 northbound. To ensure public safety, and allow an investigation to take place, officers have closed the coastbound M2 between junctions 3 and 4. It took place on the coastbound carriageway, between junctions 3 and 4, and officers attended alongside South East Coast Ambulance Service and Kent, Surrey and Sussex Air Ambulance. As restrictions have been lifted, well also be running some face-to-face events in late October. Closures over 12 hours or more are highlighted in blue on the downloadable 'roadwork status' attachment. The M2 is a motorway in Kent which runs through the Medway towns, Sittingbourne and Faversham. We continue to work with the local authorities and emergency services while these, and any closures linked to the scheme, are in place. Lane Closures : Lane one will be closed. Monday 30 January saw us re-open the eastbound (coastal) slip roads of the M2 junction 5, which had been closed for just over four months.
