08:30, 18 April 2016
A lane closure is expected on the M25 for several days following a crash.
A lorry crashed into a safety barrier between junction 5 for the M26 and the Clacket Lane Services on Sunday.
The heavy goods vehicle is understood to have suffered a blown tyre.
One lane of the carriageway remains closed so permanent repairs can be carried out.
A new bespoke barrier needs to be manufactured.
Highways England said this could take several days and motorists may experience delays.
