The M275 motorway has been closed once again this morning due to thick black smoke on the carriageway. The cause of this disruption is an ongoing fire at a waste and recycling facility located on Tipner Lane in Portsmouth.

Earlier today, the road was temporarily reopened with a reduced speed limit. However, the smoke has intensified, rendering the road unsafe for travel. As a result, the M275 is currently closed in all directions, with closures in place from Mile End Road to the Rudmore roundabout.
