There was congestion going back eight miles anti-clockwise on the carriageway between J28, near Brook Street and J27 near Theydon. 

Highways England said this was caused by a collision this morning. Although the lanes are open, traffic is expected.

Drivers had been told to add an additional 60 minutes onto their journey time.
