The M20 motorway has re-opened after being closed by police following an incident.

Police shut the motorway in both directions on Friday afternoon close to junction 10 near Ashford due to an undisclosed incident.

As traffic built up officers redirected motorists onto the A20 and advised drivers to avoid the area.

But Kent Police said the road was re-opened around 3pm and traffic is now flowing again.
