The M25 clockwise is currently blocked with a ‘heavy build up of traffic’ between junctions 15 and 16 after emergency services were called to reports of a small vehicle on fire.
A Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service crew from Slough was called to the incident at 1.19pm along with crews from other fire services, specialist officers and the Highways Agency.
The vehicle is on the hard shoulder.
