Prior to this, Balfour Beatty and National Highways completed a bridge demolition as part of the scheme, necessitating the closure of the motorway, in March this year. 

For the latest improvement works, the M25 Junction 10 to 11 was temporarily closed from 12 July to 14 July, marking the third such closure this year.  

However, the section was reopened seven hours earlier than planned. 

Balfour Beatty project director Howard Williams said: “Another great achievement for Balfour Beatty and National Highways, as we reopen the M25 to the travelling public ahead of schedule following another complex weekend of works.

“I would like to extend my thanks to my colleagues and our supply chain partners who have worked tirelessly to make this latest closure a roaring success, and to the public who listened to the advice and followed the diversion routes.” 

During the recent works, Balfour Beatty installed 72 concrete beams to form the second of the new gyratory bridges at Junction 10.   

Additionally, two new gantries were erected, including a 45m superspan gantry that spans the entire width of the M25 carriageway. 

Looking forward, Balfour Beatty is set to commence the construction of the next modular bridge, which will be assembled off site.  

This approach will see the bridge transported and installed using a self-propelled modular transporter. 

The Junction 10 improvement scheme is expected to be completed in mid-2025.  

The M25 is said to be one of the UK’s busiest motorways.
