A CAR has ended up on its roof after a crash at a south Essex major junction.

PC Mike Bignell of the Road Policing Unit shared the picture of the silver Ford Ka upside down in the middle of the A1245 at the Fairglen Interchange.

The road was blocked northbound between the exit slip road of the A127 Londonbound and the Bonville’s roundabout.

Heavy traffic has built up in the area as the road was closed while the vehicle was moved.

One lane is now open but motorists are being advised to avoid the area if possible.

It is unknown how many vehicles were involved at this time.
