We understand how frustrating delays are, so we want to help you plan your journey within or through our south east region.
You can find out about any planned roadworks and closures using our daily closures reports. And as we can’t always predict when the unexpected may happen, follow us on Twitter to keep up to date of any emergency work or incidents.
If you’re planning an early or night-time getaway to avoid traffic, remember that much of our improvement and maintenance work is planned overnight for when our network is quieter, meaning your journey could still be affected.
Setting out safely for your journey
We want you to get to your destination safely. So before you set off, there are some simple vehicle checks you should carry out:
- Check you tyre pressure and treads
- Check your lights
- Check your oil
- Top up your screen wash
