Two broken down cars are causing delays at the Dartford Tunnel this morning.

The first caused the closure of a lane in the tunnel, affecting the A282 anticlockwise between the junction 1A of the M25, for Erith and Swanscombe, and 30, towards London and Rainham.

Meanwhile another broken down car between junction 2 of the A2, for the Darenth Interchange, and junction 1B for Princes Road, has added to the problem.

The car was stuck across the middle or four lanes, heading towards the tunnel, and has now been removed from the road.

KCC Highways has told drivers to approach the tunnel with caution.
