UPDATE: Video of M25 lorry fire shows black smoke pouring from flaming vehicle.

Traffic is building up on the M25 after thick smoke from a lorry fire blew across the road.

The fire brigade is responding to the fire between junctions 22, for London Colney, and 21A, for St Albans, on the anti-clockwise carriageway.

Three appliances from Potters Bar, Borehamwood and Garston are in attendance.
