“Our dedicated teams have planned our coach service diversions to ensure all of our customers are able get to their destinations safely and as quickly as possible during the full closure of the M25 between junctions 9 and 10.
“The previous M25 closure in March was unprecedented, not having been seen since the 1980s, and yet our collective efforts meant that we were able to keep our coach network moving with customers experiencing minimal disruption to their journeys.
“We are again encouraging customers to allow plenty of time for their travel and to track their service on nationalexpress.com/coachtracker. We are also contacting customers who are affected by the diversion to offer a free amendment to their ticket should they wish to change their travel plans.”
