More than 70 sections of various roads will be shut on Saturday and Sunday, according to National Highways.
Some closures – such as on the M25-clockwise – will actually kick in tonight as engineers carry out maintenance. Several junctions on the A12, which cuts through east London down to Suffolk, and the West tunnel on the Northbound way of the Dartford Crossing will also be closed.
For commuters hoping for an easy ride on a Friday, meanwhile, we have some bad news. TfL says parts of the District and Overground lines are suspended this morning.
The western side of the District line has been hit by severe delays too. This is because of a points failure at South Acton and Turnham Green, with railway services also not running until 7.15pm, according to National Rail.
