I’ve received an update from the team in charge of the M25 road widening project between Junction 27 (M11 Theydon Garnon) and Junction 30 (A13 Thurrock Lakeside). Apparently there have been exciting archaeological finds at Passingford Bridge!
More prosaically it also provides an information on progress with earthworks, drainage and traffic management. I know the contraflow and speed limits are proving frustrating for many drivers. There is some relief ahead in that work will close down for Christmas between Wednesday 23rd December and Monday 4th January 2010.
The roadworks around Theydon Garnon should be over by August 2010 but the project is set to continue until July 2012. I assume over-runs will not be permitted because the Olympic Games start on the 27th of the month.
