Dartford Crossing is closed after a lorry crash as drivers face long delays[/caption]
There are considerable delays tailing back from the bridge on the M25.
It is thought it will take considerable time for the fuel to be cleaned with delays expected into the evening.
The crash took place this morning at around 11am and involved a car and a lorry.
Traffic is set to be diverted through the right-hand tunnel of the crossing.
This means that northbound traffic will only have one tunnel to pass through at the crossing which connects Essex to Kent.
It’s not yet known whether there are any serious injuries.
