Massive delays on M25 QE2 Bridge after police incident
Major Chaos Clockwise from Junction 31 to 1A
Severe hold-ups are wreaking havoc on the M25 QE2 Bridge heading clockwise. A police incident has shut three lanes, leaving just one open after a 45-minute complete blockage. Traffic is bumper-to-bumper from Junction 31 (A1306 Lakeside/Purfleet) all the way back to Junction 30.
Drivers Warned: Expect Long Delays
- Only one lane currently operating on the bridge
- Congestion extends back to Junction 30 Lakeside/Purfleet
- Major tailbacks building towards Dartford Crossing
Commuters using the Dartford Crossing should brace for severe congestion with no clear timeline for when the full carriageway will reopen.
Check Traffic Updates & Plan Ahead
Drivers are urged to check live traffic reports before setting off. If possible, avoid the affected stretch and allow plenty of extra journey time to avoid getting stuck in the snarls.
