A lorry fire has been causing delays on the M25 in Kent today.

The HGV burst into flames on the anti-clockwise carriageway between J5 for the M26/A21 at Sevenoaks and the Clacket Lane services.

It happened at about 7.10am and left one lane closed throughout the morning.

Heavy traffic built as firefighters put out the blaze and recovery work was carried out.

Motorists were using lanes two, three and four while the first lane was blocked.
