Travel Update – BREXIT

Travel  Update: Operation Brock starts Monday, 25 March

Travel Update: Please be advised that Operation Brock will be in place from 6am on Monday, 25 March.  Operation Brock is a new traffic management system designed to keep the M20 open in the event of disruption following the UK’s withdrawal from the EU.  It replaces Operation Stack.

If you travel via the M20 you should allow extra time for your journey.

Contraflow

A contraflow will be in effect from north of Junction 8 (for Maidstone) to Junction 9 at Ashford. Lorries heading for mainland Europe will be routed down the coastbound carriageway, with a 30mph speed limit in place. All other traffic will be directed onto the London-bound carriageway, with two lanes in each direction operating at 50mph.

For more information on Operation Brock, please see the Highways England press release.
