M20 delays after car crashes into barrier between Junction 6 for Maidstone and Junction 5 for Aylesford
A stretch of the M20 is shut after a car crashed into the central reservation barrier. Motorists heading London-bound on the motorway between Junction 6 for the A229 in Maidstone and Junction 5 for Aylesford are affected.
Those travelling on the route at around 5.30am faced delays while the emergency services worked at the scene, where a damaged car could be seen. Congestion is currently backing up to Junction 7 for Detling Hill as a result.
A detour is in place where drivers must use the feeder link road running parallel.
A police spokesperson said officers were called just after 5am. Patrols and staff from National Highways attended the scene where no injuries were reported and the vehicle was recovered. Police have now left the scene, but highways officers are managing lane closures while the barrier is repaired.
