Massive M25 Delays as Dartford Crossing Chaos Strikes

Drivers face brutal hold-ups on the M25 anti-clockwise near Dartford Crossing after a crash shut down one of the tunnels. Although the scene has been cleared and both tunnels are now open, long delays persist across the area and all major approaches.

Gridlock Back to Junction 4

Journey times are soaring, with the M25 backed up for over 7.5 miles and delays stretching an hour longer than usual for this time of day. The tailbacks reach all the way back to Junction 4.

A2 and Local Roads Also Jammed

  • Drivers on the A2 westbound are stuck with more than 40-minute delays approaching the M25.
  • Local roads in Dartford are crawling under heavy congestion as well.

Authorities warn it will take quite a while for traffic to return to normal, so motorists are urged to plan ahead and expect lengthy travel disruptions.
