Part of the A12 remains closed in Essex this morning due to overrunning roadworks.

The northbound carriageway is closed between Ingatestone and Howe Green.

National Highways said in a tweet that contractors are working as hard as they can to get the road open again.

It is not yet clear when the road will be reopen.
