Operation Brock on the M20 has been reinstated ahead of what the Kent Resilience Forum (KRF) said promised to be a very busy summer getaway.
With the highest passenger numbers since before the pandemic booked to cross the channel in July and August on ferries from Dover and trains through Le Shuttle, the contraflow system at the heart of the Brock traffic management scheme will be rolled out between junctions 8 and 9.
The KRF said it should reduce the impact of disruption by directing HGVs heading for mainland Europe onto the motorway’s coastbound carriageway, where they can be held, if necessary, while all other traffic can continue on its journey in both directions.
