Traffic had to be held on the M25 this afternoon due to a crash. 

Queues went back to junction 13 for Staines following the crash, which happened just before junction 16 on the clockwise carriageway for the M40. 

All traffic had to be stopped for around five minutes while highways officers assessed the scene but all lanes have now reopened. 

The crash has been moved to the hard shoulder, allowing traffic to continue flowing.
