The anti-clockwise carriageway of the M25 in Surrey is still shut between junctions 10 and 11, following a collision shortly before midnight. National Highways said police finished investigating around 6am BST, but warned the motorway will stay shut for most of the morning. Motorists should use a diversion route that takes them through Byfleet to the A3 at Cobham.
