M25 Slammed Shut Both Ways After Suspicious Vehicle Sparks Security Alert
The M25 has been shut down in both directions between Junction 27 and Junction 29 following a major security scare. Cops from the Met Police and Essex Police scrambled to the scene near the A12 in Brentford, putting the motorway on lockdown just before 11pm on Monday.
Traffic Chaos as M25, M11, A12 and A127 Hit
With the M25 closed, drivers faced heavy diversions on local routes. The disruption didn’t just stop there — the M11, A12, and A127 roads were also snarled up as a result of the closure.
Suspicious Driver Sparks Full-Scale Search
The drama began when a vehicle stopped on the motorway hard shoulder. The driver was spotted acting oddly, rummaging near the verge. Authorities quickly moved in, sealing off a large area on both sides of the carriageway to conduct thorough searches.
Nothing Found – But Roadblocks Remain
Despite extensive checks, officers found no threat. A Highways England spokesperson confirmed that the closures “are about to be lifted shortly,” promising relief for frustrated motorists.
