Two lorries have reportedly crashed on a major motorway in south Essex with drivers facing long delays as parts of the road have been closed.
Two lanes are closed on the M25 junction 30 clockwise exit after a crash involving two lorries. As a result there is only access to the A13 eastbound.
There is also a partial closure of the junction 30 roundabout.
