A crane fire at junction 9 of the M25 at Leatherhead has led to 90 minute delays for drivers this morning.
Two lanes of the motorway have been closed for most of the morning while emergency services make the scene safe.
Traffic was held for a time and the congestion is now back to junction 7 delaying drivers from Kent on their journeys.
