Traffic on London’s M25 motorway is disrupted due to emergency road surface repairs. Multiple lanes are closed near Junction 27 on the anticlockwise carriageway, with two out of three lanes reported as unavailable for traffic. As a result, congestion builds along the route, with reports citing around 11 miles of queues and delays of up to about 90 minutes. Drivers are advised to delay journeys and expect disruption while the works are carried out. The live reporting focuses on the impact at and around Junction 27, where the closures are said to be driving the longest tailbacks in the anticlockwise direction. The information indicates that the disruption is linked directly to the emergency maintenance work, rather than unrelated incidents. Details on how long the closures will remain in place are not included in the provided summaries, but both accounts describe the same cause and the same overall level of congestion and delay.
