M25 closure J15 update
Update: M25 junction 15 anticlockwise closures (8pm to 10am)
Connect Plus Services works on behalf of National Highways and Connect Plus to manage, operate and maintain the M25 and its linking roads, including the Dartford-Thurrock River Crossing.
I’m writing to let you know that we have postponed this weekend’s planned closure at M25 junction 15 due to forecast adverse weather conditions.
As a result, the M25 junction 15 anticlockwise carriageway will no longer be closed between 8pm on Saturday 24 October and 10am Sunday 25 October 2026.
Instead, we’ll need to use a contingency closure to complete this work the following weekend. The M25 junction 15 anticlockwise carriageway, above the M4, is now scheduled to close: From 8pm Saturday 31 October until 10am Sunday 1 November 2026
The M25 junction 15 clockwise carriageway and all links between the M25 and M4 will remain open throughout the works.
Diversion route During the closure, M25 anticlockwise traffic will need to exit at junction 15. There will be a fully signed diversion route in place to rejoin the M25 anticlockwise carriageway after the closure: follow the M4 westbound to junction 5 turn around at M4 junction 5 (the Langley Interchange) return on the M4 eastbound to rejoin the M25 anticlockwise via M4 junction 4b

The route will be busier than usual, with residual delays expected on the M25 on Sunday after the closures have been removed.
If you must travel between these times Please plan ahead and allow extra time for your journey. Travel earlier or later in the day – we’re expecting the busiest time around the M25/M4 interchange on Sunday mornings between 8am and midday.
Where possible Consider alternatives to avoid severe delays, including alternative routes or public transport (i.e., for Heathrow Airport, Heathrow Express, Elizabeth Line). We’ll complete some further works on weekday nights. These closures will take place between 10pm and 6am. During weekday nights, a diversion will be in place to M4 junction 4 and return.

Parking charge changes
| Our grateful thanks to Ruislip residents for flagging this Hillingdon First free parking to go phone-only, fewer ticket machines, and Sunday parking charges In July, Hillingdon’s Director of Community Safety & Enforcement, Richard Webb, told the Residents’ Services Select Committee that Pay & Display machines were under review and that proposals would need to be developed. Those proposals have now been published. A report dated 22 September 2026 to the Cabinet Member for Residents’ Services, Cllr Wayne Bridges, asks him to approve a public consultation on five changes to parking across the borough – and ticket machines are only one of them. Cllr Eddie Lavery, Cabinet Member for Finance, is also consulted. Cllr Bridges can sign off the decision from Wednesday 30th September, and Cabinet will make the final decision in December once the consultation has finished. The five proposals are: the resident discount, including the free half hour for Hillingdon First Card holders, to be available through Pay by Phone only, and no longer at ticket machines every driver to give their registration number when paying for parking, at machines as well as by phone a digital replacement for the Hillingdon First Card for resident parking rates fewer Pay & Display machines, with a principle for deciding which ones go Sunday charges at council car parks in Hayes town centre that are currently free on Sundays further info can be found on their website https://www.ruislipresidents.org.uk/parking-charge-changes/ |
