Full closure of the M25

The third full closure of the M25 (J10-J11) took place between Friday, 12th July and Monday, 15th July.  There had been due to be 2 more full weekend closures in 2024 but Highways England has recently announced that these will now take place in Spring 2025.  No dates have been confirmed yet but they will give a minimum of four weeks’ notice and they say that they will avoid busy holiday periods.

The M25/A3 will still be closed at times over some weekends and they will also be doing some 12 hour night closures on the M25 during the Autumn.

Further information will be posted on this page when it becomes available but a link to National Highways is provided below in case this is helpful:
