M25 - Road traffic collision
The M25 in Essex is closed clockwise between J27 (for the M11) and J28 (for the A12, near Brentwood) due to an earlier collision involving 3 HGVs.
National Highways Traffic Officers are on scene assisting with traffic management.
As a result of the collision there was a large diesel spillage across 3 lanes of the carriageway.
The vehicles have been recovered and after an inspection of the road it was deemed necessary to resurface all 3 lanes.
Road crews are at scene and work is underway
Diversion Route:
