The M27 will be closed in both directions between junctions 9 and 11 from 24th December 2025 to 4th January 2026.
This may cause significant disruption to your journey to our simulator, particularly if you are heading westbound.
There will be a signed diversion route in place along the A27 during the closure. This route is expected to be busy, particularly between 10am and 4pm every day when drivers should be prepared for extended delays.
Diversion route to be put in place during the closure – Hampshire County Council
Drivers will be able to exit the M27 westbound at Junction 11 for Fareham and Gosport, and eastbound at Junction 9 for Whiteley and Park Gate. However, there will be no westbound entry to the M27 at Junction 11 for traffic heading towards Southampton, and no eastbound entry at Junction 9 for traffic heading towards Portsmouth.
We advise all customers with sessions booked during this closure to plan their journey in advance to ensure their session starts on time.
As December and January are very busy periods for the business, there may be other sessions taking place on the same day. If a session does not start at its scheduled time, we may need to shorten it accordingly.
We will take every measure to prevent this, however we cannot guarantee that delays caused by the closure will not impact scheduled session times.
We thank you for your patience and understanding during this period.
