Chaos on the M20 eastbound this morning after a crash forced the road to close between J8 A20 Ashford Road (Leeds Castle / Maidstone Services) and J9 A20 Fougeres Way (Ashford).
Severe Delays Hit Commuters
Traffic was brought to a standstill with severe delays reported. Authorities briefly held traffic just before J8 while setting up the closure.
Avoid the Area
Drivers are urged to avoid this stretch if possible and expect long hold-ups as emergency services clear the scene.
