Lighthouse Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Does anyone of a Police/traffic persuasion know why they’d close 9-7 westbound for an accident near junction 5? 7-5 is still closed because of an unsafe gantry but the rest doesn’t seem to make much sense.

The Kraken Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I guess 7 is closed because the road up from the motorway junction towards Southampton is closed for major repairs. Don't know why 8 is closed. Official diversion is J9 then A27/A3024. Also hearing the motorway may not reopen until late this evening; which I'm especially looking forward to for my drive home which was utterly f*cking chaotic last night.

LuckyNumber7 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Getting anywhere yesterday was an absolute nightmare, imagine it'll be just as bad if not worse today. It's staying closed all day today, I've decided to stay home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cat Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Must have been lucky on Wednesday evening as it took me not much over an hour to get to Hamble from Portsmouth, although junction 8 was open which helped. Sounds like chaos today. 3 hours from Fareham to Southampton for someone I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kraken Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 All 3 arrested for death by dangerous driving (one for drink and drugs, one for drink) so they’re either not admitting who was actually behind the wheel, or the police have charged the passengers anyway (just had a quick look online and in very rare cases passengers have been done before for death by dangerous driving especially if drink/drugs are involved). Absolute shocker, hope they get the book thrown at them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
