M27 to reopen in full following smart motorway work

After three years of roadworks, the M27 is to fully reopen - with a new lane becoming available to traffic from this weekend.

National Highways has confirmed that traffic cones and barriers will start to be removed on the 15-mile stretch between junction 4 in Southampton and junction 11 in Fareham on Saturday (February 12th).

Extra safety measures have also been brought in during the project to turn each carriageway of the section into a four-lane 'smart motorway'.

A lower speed limit of 60 mph will remain in place while the technology, which includes stopped vehicle detection, is tested.
