ALERT: M25 Anti-Clockwise Slow Traffic Near Dartford Tunnel

⚠️ TRAFFIC

Heavy traffic volumes are causing delays on the M25 anti-clockwise approaching the Dartford Tunnel.

Motorists are experiencing slow-moving traffic on the M25 anti-clockwise between Junction 2 and the Dartford Tunnel this morning due to high volumes of traffic. The congestion is affecting the approach to the crossing during peak morning travel times.

The delays are concentrated in the anti-clockwise direction as traffic builds towards the Dartford Tunnel crossing. Commuters and travellers heading south through this section should expect slower-than-normal journey times and plan extra time for their journey.

This is typical of Friday morning traffic patterns, with increased vehicle volumes during the rush hour period. The situation may ease as traffic disperses throughout the morning, but travellers are advised to remain patient and maintain safe distances.

Consider using alternative routes if possible, or delay your journey until traffic volumes reduce. Keep your vehicle well-maintained and ensure you have sufficient fuel before joining the motorway.
