M25 J5 Eastbound A21-M26 Diverge - Coppermine - 18221.jpg
M25 J5 Eastbound A21-M26 Diverge

Zoom view of the eastbound A21 (South) and M26 split at Chevening. The left turn is very tight and rotates approx 270 degrees before joining the mainline A21 heading south towards the A25 exit for Sevenoaks and Hastings. The TOTSO M25 S to W slip can be also be seen curving around from the left and crossing the eastbound M26 to where it merges with the westbound M26 in the foreground.

Busy scene at Chevening taken at 8am on a weekday. The A21 which is in the foreground is quiet. The SOX lighting was replaced soon afterwards and this junction is now SON lit.

The approach to the merge with the M25 at J5, Chevening. The carriageways split behind the second white car in lane 2, and the westbound c'way merges with the M25 at the top of the short incline.

M26 - 1 - J2A

Just after the M20/M26 split. The M20 is to the right of the photo -- we are on the M26. The first sign (to the left of the red lorry) says: 'Next exit Godstone 18 miles'. The next, larger sign is the standard fork sign for M26 J2a.

Proposed remodelling of Chevening - Coppermine - 20186.jpg
Idea for improving Chevening

M25 now straightened with no TOTSO. A21 to M26 slips added so Sevenoaks traffic can finally use the motorway to get to Maidstone.

A225 bridge over M26 This is where a junction off the M26 onto the A225 in this direction has been campaigned for for years (and the bridge seems to have been designed with this in mind), but nothing has yet materialised.
