As a result, there are also serious delays in the A2, A20 and surrounding villages. The long queues have been caused by the freeway used to guard trucks heading to the canal junctions between Junction 8 for Leeds Castle and Maidstone Services and Junction 9 for Ashford. The road is closed to all non-freight traffic heading east. The London side of the road remains open to all traffic. There is a diversion route for all non-trucks, which leads to the A20.
