So the M2 is an old motorway, peculiar issues are that it's only 4 lanes but bizarrely the A2 from London is 6 lanes so the M2 is actually a lower specification road than the A2.

The M2 is a 26-mile long motorway in Kent, England, and was built to bypass a section of the A2 road in Kent, which goes through the Medway Towns, Sittingbourne, and Faversham. It provides an alternative route to the Port of Dover, which supplements the M20 motorway located further to the south.
The M. 2 specification provides up to four PCI Express lanes and one logical SATA 3.0 (6 Gbit/s) port, and exposes them through the same connector so both PCI Express and SATA storage devices may exist in the form of M.
At 231 miles (370km), the M6 is the UK's longest motorway. It runs from Catthorpe (junction 19 on the M1) to the Scottish Border. The M62 is the highest motorway in the UK. It reaches 1,220ft (372m) near the Pennine Way footbridge.
The M2 was constructed in the 1960's, with the Medway bypass being constructed in 1963 and the rest in 1965. It was planned to extend the road to London and Dover, making the M2 the main route between London and the Channel Ports, but this extension never materialised. The M2 stayed much the same until the 1990's.
Britain's first motorway, the Preston by-pass, opened in 1958. Designed by Lancashire County Council under civil engineer Sir James Drake – regarded as the pioneer of the UK motorway network – it's now part of the M6. The next 10 years saw UK's network expand as hundreds of miles of motorway were built.
Somewhere to the east of Glasgow lies the A8(M) - but look carefully, because it's not easy to find. The A8(M) is the UK's shortest motorway, running for just over 280 metres (308 yards). It forms a link between two roundabouts at Baillieston Interchange, better known as the junction between the M8 and M73.
Work began on the M2 in the mid-1960s to support the congestion which overpowered the A2 through the Medway Towns. There are only seven junctions on the M2. Making up just 25 miles of the 62-mile bypass, the M2 is still regarded as an important network for the population in this corner of the UK.
