A major road in south Essex remains closed after a lorry crash near the A13.

The A1089 Dock Approach Road was closed both ways after a crash involving a lorry earlier this morning.

There is still some congestion back on to the A13 too as a result of the incident.

Traffic was stopped in both directions at around 7:30am this morning, but the southbound side has now been released.

Emergency services remain at the scene as recovery work continues.
