Drivers heading towards London are facing delays of around 15 minutes following a crash near the M25 in Kent. The incident has partially blocked the M20 London-bound exit slip road at the Swanley Interchange, according to traffic reports.
Crash blocks lane on M20 slip road
Lane one of two on the slip road is affected, with the second lane remaining open to traffic. The partial blockage is causing queues for motorists approaching the interchange from the M20 towards London.
The slip road to the M25 anticlockwise remains closed as a result of the incident. However, drivers can still access the motorway via the roundabout, providing an alternative route for those affected.
Alternative route available via roundabout
While the M25 anticlockwise slip road closure adds to the disruption, the roundabout at Swanley Interchange offers a way for drivers to reach the motorway. Traffic is being advised to allow extra time for their journeys.
No injuries have been reported in connection with the crash, and the incident is currently being managed by the relevant authorities. The extent of the damage to the vehicles involved has not been disclosed.
Delays expected to ease after clearance
Delays of approximately 15 minutes are currently being experienced, though this could vary depending on traffic flow and the time taken to clear the scene. Motorists are advised to plan ahead and consider alternative routes if possible.
The situation is expected to improve once the affected lane is reopened and the slip road to the M25 anticlockwise is restored. Further updates will be provided as more information becomes available from traffic monitoring services.
