The M20 is expected to re-open following a serious multi-vehicle crash.
The coastbound carriageway was shut between junctions 8 for Maidstone Services and 9 for Ashford after the crash last night.
Two people were taken to hospital. Emergency services were at the scene this morning, with police leading the response.
Initially it was thought the stretch of road would not re-open until around 3.15pm, but Highways England say the closures are now being lifted.
There are still some delays however.
Diverted traffic should leave the M20 at junction 8 and join the A20 towards Ashford.
Continue to the junction with Fougeres Way and then take the first exit to head northbound and rejoin the M20 eastbound at junction 9.
Anyone travelling from further away is being urged to consider using the A2 and M2 instead.
