It is thought a consignment of food products was scattered on the carriageway.

There is congestion in Tonbridge and drivers are being diverted through Sevenoaks.

A police spokesman said they were called at about 4.55am and officers closed the road earlier while Highways workers cleared the debris.

Highways England said the road has now reopened but delays of up to an hour remain as traffic clears.
