A stretch of the A12 southbound in Essex has reopened after a collision earlier on Thursday night.

The A12 in Hatfield Peverel was closed London-bound between junction 20a, B1137 (Hatfield Peverel South) and the Boreham Interchange from around 9.30pm to 11pm.

An Essex Police spokesman said there were no major injuries and the stretch of the A12 has now fully reopened.
