A multi-vehicle collision on the clockwise M25 near Junction 2 led to the full closure of the QEII bridge at the Dartford Crossing. Traffic has backed up for around 12 miles, resulting in delays of up to three hours and congestion reaching Junction 28 for the A12 in east London. Emergency services and recovery teams are attending the scene, but no details about the crash have yet been released.
