Motorists are being urged to plan ahead as the Dartford Crossing tunnels are set to close every night this week for essential maintenance.
Closures will affect both northbound and southbound lanes along the A282, with clearly marked diversions via the National Highways network.
Drivers should anticipate delays and monitor updates, since timings may fluctuate depending on the weather.
The Dartford Crossing, which connects Dartford in Kent to Thurrock in Essex, is one of the busiest routes across the River Thames, and the overnight works are expected to cause disruption until early May.
