M27 closure: Traffic builds on A27 in Fareham as motorway bridge work enters second day
The motorway has been closed between junctions 9 and 11 so that a footbridge north of Fareham can be installed.
It had to be replaced to prepare for the smart motorway being created between junctions 4 and 11, which entails widening the carriageway.
