LONDON, ENGLAND - MARCH 17: In this aerial view a new gantry is installed over the M25 on March 17, 2024 in London, England. The full closure of a section of the M25 between junction 10 and 11 has taken place over the weekend to remove a bridge and install a new gantry. The closure is part of a £317m upgrade, with works expected to be finished by September. It is the first time there has been a scheduled daytime closure of all lanes of the motorway since it opened in 1986. The 117 mile long orbital motorway encircles Greater London and is the busiest in the UK. (Photo by Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)
