Last year saw the successful installation of the UK ’ s first multi-span flexi arch bridge , which was prefabricated off site , before being delivered and craned into place directly beneath the existing M2 viaduct .
Progress continues to be made on the development . In October this year , a section of the M2 London-bound on-slip reopened earlier than planned . In the early hours of Thursday 28 September , we reopened access to the on-slip from the A249 southbound ( from Sittingbourne ).
Chris Welby-Everard , Highways England ’ s Regional Delivery Director in the South East , said : “ Improving the Stockbury Interchange will bring real benefits to the drivers who use this junction daily , and it will improve the flow of traffic to provide a safer and more integrated network for everyone .”
Main construction work on the project started in autumn 2021 and is expected to complete in 2025 .
We are pleased to be associated with NATIONAL HIGHWAYS & GRAHAM on the M2 J5 IMPROVEMENTS
