A crash outside Bluewater involving three vehicles is now clear after causing huge traffic problems.

The northbound B255 Bean Road, which links the A2 and the Greenhithe shopping centre, had been partially blocked for multiple hours.

It caused long delays in the area with congestion stretching back to Southfleet Road though this is now clearing up.

The A2 also suffered from delays with queues up as far as the M25.

Police were on the scene and have been contacted for more information.

More as we have it.
