Severe delays are expected overnight as M25 traffic is set to be diverted due to uncompleted verge works.

Road users travelling clockwise towards junction 26 for Waltham Abbey will be diverted to junction 28 between 10pm and 5.30am tonight due to a closed slip road.

The Highways Agency has confirmed that estimated delays of over 15 minutes will be ongoing overnight due to uncompleted work between Bell Common Tunnel and junction 27.

The M11 southbound link road to the M25 anti-clockwise carriageway will be closed overnight with diversions via junction 28 tomorrow.

The estimated cost for the works, that are expected to finish at the end of the month, is £188m and will include new signage and lighting.
