Junction 3 of the M2 is also over capacity. If 2 out of 3 junctions are over capacity already the effect of the Lower Thames Crossing on these junctions and local roads will be terrible. The A228 is already used as a cut through for traffic heading from the M2 to the M20 mostly because J3 is over capacity with long queues at peak times. Once the LTC is built it is likely that J2 will develop capacity issues caused by traffic heading for the M20. Concentrating solely on Junction 1 effects would be short sighted.
