M25 Chaos: Multi-Car Crash Shuts Anti-Clockwise Between J5 and J4

Chaos hit the M25 late Monday night after a multi-vehicle smash forced a full closure of the anti-clockwise carriageway between Junction 5 (M26, A21) and Junction 4 (Bromley).

Emergency Crews Race to Scene

Kent Police and fire crews scrambled to the crash site shortly after 10pm on December 1, following alerts from National Highways. Recovery teams swung into action while a diversion was set up, causing mile-long delays.

Road Reopens, But Delays Persist

The M25 anti-clockwise finally reopened around 11.20pm after a tough clean-up. National Highways confirmed traffic was easing, but the smash had already thrown one of the UK’s busiest motorways into turmoil.

Injuries Unknown as Investigation Continues

Details remain sketchy on the number of vehicles involved or whether anyone was injured. Emergency crews worked through the night to clear the wreckage and probe what caused the crash.
