On a sunny October afternoon, I was driving through the lanes of Kent when I found myself driving along an unclassified road that goes under the M2 Bottom Pond Viaduct. This viaduct about 1 to 2 miles east of J5 comes third on the M2 structure list after the Medway Bridges and the Stockbury Viaduct.
