The M25 is closed clockwise following a lorry fire between Junction 5 for Sevenoaks and Junction 6 for Godstone.

The blaze broke out last night and has also closed the M26 London bound from Junction 2A for Wrotham to Junction 1 for the M25.

National Highways say the clockwise carriageway of the M25 is likely to remain closed until around midday for recovery work and resurfacing.

Lanes three and four are also closed on the anticlockwise carriageway between Godstone and Sevenoaks.

Drivers are warned to expect delays on diversion routes, including the A21, A25 and A22.

Congestion is stretching back to junction 3 of the M20 for the Swanley Interchange, and anticlockwise back to junction 7 of the M23.

There are also long queues on the A25 diversion back into Sevenoaks.

Drivers are urged to leave extra time for their journeys.

Elsewhere, traffic is stretching back for miles due to emergency roadworks at the Dartford Crossing.

One of the tunnels is expected to remain closed throughout the day.
