A lorry overturned on the M50 has called for road diversions as authorities attend the scene.
The M50 south bound near Junction 12 is currently impassable due to an overturned truck that was carrying horses.
The emergency services are at scene to aid the situation.
This stretch is expected to remain closed until a crane arrives to remove the overturned truck.
There are no reports on the condition of the horses being carried but the driver is described as being uninjured.
Motorists are being asked to avoid this stretch of the M50 and to take alternative routes until the vehicle is removed.
