The new junction will essentially form a single junction complex incorporating the existing junction 10, with two interlinked roundabout interchanges. A new footbridge was also constructed across the motorway.In August 2016 part of a pedestrian footbridge connecting areas of Ryarsh divided by the motorway was brought down - initially suspected to be the result of an impact by a digger from nearby works to widen the southbound bridge at junction 4 being carried on a low-loader that was moving along the hard shoulder.Since the opening of the Channel Tunnel, sections of the M20 have been used occasionally for the implementation of Operation Stack, should the ferries and/or Channel Tunnel stop running.

Tapping each icon will reveal more details, with a link to a detailed database page.The colour of the icon gives you a rough idea how big the services are. Reason: Road traffic collision. In the 2000s, when major upgrades of all trunk roads in Ireland were planned, this road suffered the unfortunate distinction of being, along with the N18 and the N9, the national primary route serving a city that was in most need of urgent attention. Junction 9 of the M20 was originally built in 1981, with provision for the motorway to continue towards Maidstone and London, which was eventually completed in 1991.. This was a Between 2006 and 2007 junction 10 near Ashford was remodelled to increase capacity when the bridges across the motorway were modified to provide three lanes of traffic at the roundabout, and local approach roads were widened, with new traffic lights to control traffic flows at the junction between the A292 Hythe Road and the London-bound M20 entry slip road. Nearest town: 3.32m from Ashford. The entire route from the M20/N21 junction south to Cork will be replaced with a proposed M20 motorway. At the point where the M20 reaches the M7 Limerick Southern Ring Road, there is a large freeflow junction.
