Delays have cleared after a crash in a tunnel on the Thanet Way.

Police were called to the scene in Chestfield and one lane was closed, causing traffic to queue back towards Whitstable.

A trailer is reported to have come loose from a lorry at around 9.30am on the coastbound carriageway of the A299.
