DRIVERS are facing delays on the Dartford Crossing this afternoon as a crash and a lane closure are causing slow traffic.

Traffic is slow on the M25 anticlockwise coming into Essex through the Dartford Tunnels, as one lane is closed on the motorway in Dartford due to a vehicle having a tyre changed.

A crash at junction 1A on the M25 clockwise is also causing delays over the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge back to junction 30 in Essex, according to the county council traffic control.

The reported crash is from junction 1A A206 near Bob Dunn Way to junction 1B A296 near Princes Road.

AA traffic updates reports an average speed 20 miles per hour.
