Drivers are facing severe delays after a crash brought traffic to a halt on a busy stretch of the M25.

Traffic is being held on the M25 clockwise between Junction 30 and Junction 31 near the Dartford Crossing following a road traffic collision.

Emergency services are at the scene, with motorists currently facing delays of up to 40 minutes approaching the closure.

Plans are being made to reopen lanes three and four past the scene, which should allow some traffic to begin moving while the incident continues to be dealt with.

Drivers travelling towards the Dartford Crossing are being advised to allow extra time for their journeys.
