M25 reopened in Surrey after police incident

The motorway was closed in both directions between junctions six and seven

A section of the M25 in Surrey has reopened after a police incident led to traffic disruption on Friday.

Officers were called to the motorway at around 17:45 BST and all lanes between junctions six and seven were closed in both directions.

The anti-clockwise carriageway was reopened within hours but the clockwise carriageway remained shut until about 23:50.

National Highways had also warned of delays of 40 minutes between junctions five and six on the motorway on Friday evening.

Surrey Police later said a man had died in an incident which was not being treated as suspicious. His next of kin have been informed.
