Part of M11 was shut after a two-vehicle crash

It has now reopened

The northbound section of the M11 in Essex has reopened following a collision between a van and a car.

Drivers were previously warned of 50-minute delays on a stretch between junction six for Epping, and junction 7 for Harlow, at midday on Saturday.

National Highways said drivers had been caught in about four miles (6.4km) of congestion but the scene was "now clear".

Traffic officers went to the stretch and debris was cleared to allow all lanes to be used.
