Dartford Crossing and M25 delays after lorry ‘shed load’ | Echo
All traffic was held on the Queen Elizabeth II bridge this afternoon after the incident, and was shortly re-opened after 10 minutes.
However, drivers are facing severe delays of 45 minutes which are increasing on the M25 clockwise between the A127 for Romford / Basildon and Bob Dunn Way in Dartford.

AA traffic reports an average speed of five miles per hour.
This is not helped by holiday traffic, as shoppers head to and from major shopping centres such as Lakeside for last-minute Christmas gifts.
