M4 games lanes to reopen today (Weds)





The lanes between junctions three and four on the M4 will be activated when needed between 5am and 10pm as part of the Paralympic Route Network (PRN).
It provides an important access route for athletes, their officials and media arriving at Heathrow for their journey to the Olympic Village in Stratford.
Outside of the allocated hours they will be open for general traffic to use, clearly signed so that road users know when they can and cannot use it.
The M4 route is the first to be opened, with other games lanes leading into London not coming into force until 6am on Wednesday, August 29 - the opening day of the Paralympic Games.
The Highways Agency will use electronic message signs to give drivers information about any diversions and delays, as well as the latest information about traffic conditions on the motorways and other major roads.
However, in the lead-up to and during the Paralympic Games, major roads managed by the Highways Agency in and out of London, such as the M4, are expected to be busy.
Drivers intending to use these routes are advised to plan ahead and leave extra time for their journeys.
