Closed J12 to J14 both ways. Linky:

and the M3 by Sunbury Cross roundabout. The traffic is being diverted via A308 to Sunbury Cross and not moving either way.

Thanks for the heads up guys. Need to get to Osterley from Wokingham for works tonight so I'll go down the M4 instead. The crash last night meant that I took 2:50 to get to work rather than 0:35.

Took me 1 hour 50, rather than 20 mins

2 hours to get home from Swindon yesterday in my 32 tonner.
Normally 1 hour.

Brilliant taking the lanes home for a change.
Cleared a few over hanging hedges on the way too.

M25 was shut today owing to a gas leak at Runnymede. WTF
Dumb excuse so just clog up the surrounding roads instead - wkers

I noticed yesterday the M3 was fked and managed to miss the traffic as I was coming home past it from Woking to Wokingham, any later and I'd of been stuck. Today I decide to go via Bagshot from Camberley instead of waiting at the Meadows roundabout which looked to be queing (so turned round) then ended up getting stuck coming from the M3 exit at bagshot towards Bracknell. Both took me 40+ minutes and the journey is usually 15/20 tops.

Had there been a huge explosion, would it have been dumb to close the junction?
The Runnymede Hotel is right on Junction 13 and well within the 200m cordon that is required.
