A MULTI-VEHICLE accident has closed one of the tunnels at the Dartford Crossing causing nightmare queues for commuters coming into Essex.
It is believed that a lorry and a car collided moments after exiting the tunnel and passing into Essex, between Junction 1A and Junction 30.
Two lanes are currently closed as the fire service and police attend the scene.
Traffic is currently stretching back to Junction 2, with traffic also building on the slip road leading from the A2.
