DEBRIS from a two-car collision caused emergency services to briefly close one carriageway of the A12.
Traffic stretched back to Marks Tey following the crash on the northbound carriageway involving a blue Citroen C3 and a silver Lexus RX400, between the junctions for Eight Ash Green and Spring Lane at just after 2pm yesterday.
A police spokesman said one car ended up on the central reservation while the other was on a verge.
The northbound carriageway was closed for about 30 minutes to clear the debris, while lanes on the southbound side were also closed and re-opened after 15 minutes.
One ambulance attended the scene, but no-one was seriously injured.
