Crash Closes A12 Southbound in Essex
The A12 is shut southbound between junction 19 (Boreham, Chelmsford North) and junction 18 (Sandon, Great Baddow) after a motorcycle crash. Emergency crews from Essex Police and Ambulance Services are at the scene.
Fuel Spill Adds to Chaos
The collision caused a fuel spillage across the carriageway, forcing the full road closure. Recovery work is underway to clear the mess and reopen the route.
Drivers Face Lengthy Diversions
Motorists are advised to follow diversion signs marked with a hollow triangle. Exit the A12 at junction 19, head south on the A130, then continue on the A1016 near Belstead Hall. Travel southwest through Chelmsford to rejoin the A12 at junction 15, Margaretting.
