Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 12 Oct, 13:31 · Archive
New slip roads have opened at M27 Junction 10 in Hampshire as part of a major motorway upgrade.
New slip roads have opened at M27 Junction 10 in Hampshire on Monday, October 12. Hampshire County Council's improvement scheme opened an eastbound off-slip and westbound on-slip, following September's launch of a westbound off-slip, underpass and four new roundabouts.
The new infrastructure means drivers can, for the first time, join the M27 westbound and exit eastbound at Junction 10. The existing junction previously allowed only partial movements, limiting access for some motorway users. An additional lane for the eastbound on-slip is scheduled to open in early winter 2026.
The project enters its final phase, with main construction work on track for completion by winter 2026. Some traffic management will remain in place during remaining activities. National Highways said it is using the remaining construction window to carry out safety improvements and technology testing on the M27, with temporary speed limits and lane restrictions between Junctions 9 and 11 expected to remain until early 2027.
