M11 Stansted Airport traffic LIVE: Long delays as motorway shut by police

The M11 motorway near Stansted Airport is closed due to police activity, resulting in significant delays for travelers.

This morning, traffic on the M11 motorway, a key route near Stansted Airport, has come to a standstill following a police closure. Authorities from Cambridgeshire Constabulary report significant delays affecting the southbound carriageway up to junction 13. This morning’s closure is causing disruptions for travelers heading to one of the UK's major airports.

The situation is expected to have severe implications for road users, particularly as lane two of the M11 remains shut with no clear timeline for reopening. Commuters on the M11 are being advised to seek alternative routes if possible, as the ongoing police activity is anticipated to delay journeys significantly throughout the morning.

Given the importance of the M11 and its heavy traffic, especially in close proximity to Stansted Airport, the police are likely to provide updates as the situation develops. The ongoing event highlights the challenges road users face during incidents of police activity, which can lead to extensive traffic delays in key transport areas.
