Truncated London – Crawley Motorway. The motorway terminates at junction 7 at the northern end; it was planned to extend into London, with its terminus being on Ringway 2, the motorway replacement for the A205 South Circular Road.

Junctions

Hooley Interchange

The Hooley Interchange is a junction between the M23 and A23. It is also the northern terminus of the M23, although that motorway was supposed to head further north. As a result, the junction is unfinished, leaving two unused flyovers over the A23.

Merstham Interchange

The Merstham Interchange is the junction between the M25 and the M23. It is one of three four-level stacks in the United Kingdom. The junction is only a mile south of the terminus of the M23, the Hooley Interchange. Consequently, very little traffic heads north from here.

Services

Pease Pottage services

Pease Pottage services are located at the extreme southern end of M23, and is one of the smallest MSAs on the British motorway network.
