Kent Police say 10 people have been taken to hospital after a multi-car pile-up on the M20.
The London-bound carriageway of the motorway was closed after six cars collided between junction four (for West Malling/Tonbridge/Rochester) and junction five (for Aylesford) at around 5.30am.
Traffic was being diverted from the M20 down a feeder road to junction five and onto the A20.
The casualties – all of whom are believed to have suffered only minor injuries – were taken to Pembury hospital for treatment.
