A lorry has overturned near the A13 in Stanford-le-Hope.

The incident happened at around 4am today at the A1014 and B1007 interchange.

Traffic is being affected in both directions with minor delays for vehicles leaving the A13.

Drivers using the slip-road exits from the bypass towards Stanford-le-Hope and Horndon-on-the-Hill can still pass the lorry but traffic is slower than usual.

The road is partially blocked but the roundabout is likely to be temporarily closed to enable the lorry to be pulled upright by the recovery vehicles at the scene.
