M3 Roadworks. Managed Motorway implementation?
Discussion
The roadworks between (I think 4a/5 - 6) are clearly in full swing.
They would appear to be making the hard shoulder into a usable lane, which I suspect involves turning it in to a managed motorway.
Odd that they are also implementing this southbound, surely a waste of money, I rarely see the traffic busy enough to warrant a new lane.
Or am I missing something?

I think these works are for armco installation and bridge works, not the new speed control.They would appear to be making the hard shoulder into a usable lane, which I suspect involves turning it in to a managed motorway.

I have noticed that they have cocked-up the southbound land widths, the centre lane is 2 ft wider than the other 2 when the inside lane should be wider one for the lorry's, it's not rocket science to get it right is it?

How many times do see a vehicle on the hard shoulder during peak times.

Leave the road alone or widen it giving 4 running lanes and a safety lane / hard shoulder
Put centre barrier at exit slips such as M25 to stop lane hoppers and last chancers
A complete waste of 146m quid IMO
