Second Full Weekend Closure – M25 – Friday 10 May until Monday 13 May 2024
Announcing our second full weekend closure
We can now confirm that the M25 will be shut between junctions 9 (A243 Leatherhead) and 10 (A3 Wisley) from 9pm Friday 10 May to 6am Monday 13 May 2024.
We advise drivers to only travel this stretch if necessary.
This closure involves a different stretch from the closure which took place in March. This time a 19-mile diversion route will be in place which uses the A3 and the A243.
We expect long delays.
Please follow the diversion and do not follow your SatNav. By staying on the diversion route you will not be charged for driving in the Ultra Low Emission Zone. It will also help reduce congestion.
We intend to close the M25 for three more weekends this year. There will be no weekend closures in June but the remaining closures will take place between July and the end of 2024. We will be in a position to announce the date of the next closure as soon as the May closure is over.
This closure is for the installation of a new bridge consisting of 68 beams, each weighing 16 tonnes, and another 4 beams weighing 40 tonnes.
Jonathan Wade, National Highways Senior Project Manager, said:
“This is far from a repeat of the previous closure, as the alternative routes are longer and will be different for over height vehicles and all other traffic.
“Drivers listened to our advice last time which reduced motorway traffic levels by over two thirds and meant delays were limited.
“Our advice again is please only travel if absolutely necessary and make sure you give yourself extra time if you do choose to use the M25.”
The Junction 10 improvement scheme will see an increase in the number of lanes to make journeys safer and new junction layout to improve traffic flow. It will also make it easier and safer to enter and exit the M25, and reduce the pollution caused by traffic jams.

READ MOREThe Fairlands Practice Patient Participation Group (FPPPG)
The FPPPG is the independent Statutory body of Fairlands’ Medical Practice patients who act as a link between the Practice and its patients. All patients and carers are automatically members.
- The Group liaises with the Practice providing feedback about the services delivered and engages with patients to gain their perspective.
- We support the Practice by arranging events to publicise available support, treatment and services as agreed with the Practice.
- The last event was to bring patients up to date with changes being made by the Practice. On September 25th this year, the Group is planning a Women’s Health event.
Being a member of the FPPPG committee helps one better understand the issues facing both our own surgeries and those of other groups within the NHS Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care Board. Patients have the opportunity to shape the way the Practice develops and suggest improvements or changes we feel may be desirable to services delivered by the Practice.
On Friday 24 May, the FPPPG is holding a meeting, and all patients are invited. This is an opportunity to learn more about the FPPPG. It will be held at 8 pm in the Fairlands Community Centre Hall, Fairlands Avenue. This will be followed by a Special General Meeting to agree changes to our Constitution. New members to the committee are very welcome, especially from working parents and young people. If you would like to learn more about the FPPPG please contact the Chairman Richard Broughton via email: fpppg@icloud.com
