The Dartford Crossing is experiencing delays of over an hour (Image: National Highways)
Chaos has erupted on a section of the M25 as a crash has halted traffic for around 12 miles, with queues still growing. The Dartford Crossing, linking Kent to Essex - and providing a route into London - is currently gridlocked.
National Highways has predicted cars will be moving again at around 9pm, but this time could be pushed back. Three of four lanes are currently closed.
The affected area is between junctions 1A and 1B clockwise. Officers are predicting delays of around two hours. Kent County Council issued a warning to drivers.
It said: "There is slow moving traffic on the A282 anti clockwise heading towards the Dartford Crossing between M25 J3 and the Dartford Tunnel. Please allow extra time for your journey."
