When is medway tunnel closed

Motorists are facing long delays through the Medway Tunnel as work starts on a major junction upgrade to ease congestion on one of the county's biggest industrial estates. The speed limit on Berwick Way from the junction of A to Gillingham Gate Roundabout has been reduced to 30mph for highway improvement works.

During the duration of the work, one lane through Berwick Way and Medway Tunnel will be closed. Overnight closures of the westbound carriageway through the tunnel will take place to coincide with scheduled maintenance work.

Junction improvements started today and are set to continue for six months until February next year. There are currently westbound delays towards the Medway City Estate - with drivers facing 30 minute delays. One motorist spent nearly an hour and a half on a five mile journey that would normally take 20 minutes.

But I don't understand why this work couldn't have been done when there was a work from home directive but construction could still go ahead.

The new slip road on the Anthony's Way roundabout which meets the A and Medway Tunnel will aim to crack almost daily traffic jams leaving the estate in the evening rush-hour under plans revealed in What's for dinner?
