Protesters Take Over M25 Gantries, Causing Chaos
Protesters have brazenly gained access to multiple motorway gantries on the M25, daring police to stop them. The trouble spots include junction 6, a gantry between junctions 8 and 9, between 13 and 12 southbound, and between 13 and 14.
Police Scramble as Protester Perches on M25 Gantry
This morning (7 November), officers were called to tackle one protester who climbed onto the gantry between junctions 6 and 7 heading towards junction 7. A protester removal team is currently preparing to climb up and bring them down safely.
Long Delays and Road Closures Hit Commuters
With safety a priority, National Highways has shut the northbound M25 from junction 6 to 7. Traffic is snarled up with long delays reported across the affected areas. Drivers are urged to avoid the stretch if possible to prevent further chaos.
The police remain on site, working to restore order as protesters continue to disrupt one of Britain’s busiest motorways.
