Detours

Detour routes have been signposted along the F3 as part of the plan to manage major incidents and are used if a major incident will cause extensive delays.

The F3 does not have to be completely closed for the detour routes to be activated. If a major incident happens, large yellow and black signs near exit ramps will be uncovered, showing you which exit you need to take and which signs you should follow.

 During peak periods motorists who have been diverted onto the detour routes should still expect delays as these roads have a much lower capacity than the F3.
