Overturned lorry in Dartford. Pic off Twitter by @nyezee237
TWO separate lorry crashes are causing congestion in and around Dartford this evening.
The first collision between two lorries happened in the west bore tunnel on the M25 anti-clockwise at 1.05pm.
Both tunnels were closed for around 20 minutes to allow trapped traffic to be freed.
The east bore has since reopened but there are still 30-minute delays in the area.
Traffic is queuing back to J2 for Darenth.
Meanwhile, the A206 Thames Road is closed in both directions due to an overturned lorry between A2026 Burnham Road and B2186 Crayford Way.
