M11 Traffic

The M11 motorway is a major road in the south-east of England, stretching from the Northern edge of London down to Cambridge. It was first opened in 1975, and its construction was part of a larger improvement project of the A11 road.

The M11 has seen some upgrades since then, including an additional lane in Witham, Essex in 1988 and a further widening of the motorway in 2015.

The motorway is generally considered to be a safe route, with a low number of accidents and fatalities occurring each year. In 2019, there were 396 accidents, causing 430 casualties in total, including 12 fatalities. This has been considerably lower than other major roads in the same area, including the M25 and M4.

Overall, the statistics for the M11 suggest a record of safety and reliability.
