Today the M25 anti clockwise is shut just north of the Dartford Tunnel following a lorry fire.

As I came round the other way just within the closed section there was a mobile crane on a low loader, and within the coned start of the closure a boat on a low loader which had an escort vehicle.

Am I correct in thinking load like that need a movement order and a set route? So in cases like this do they have to park up and wait? What happens if the driver runs out of hours waiting?

Just being nosey!

Correct, they literally have to sit and wait until the blockage is cleared.
