JUSTSTOPOIL protesters have disrupted the M25 for the fourth day in a row this morning (Thursday, 10 November).

Despite a significant police operation, with officers and vehicles deployed around the motorway, Essex Police said a woman had been arrested while trying to climb an overhead gantry close to junction 28, near Brentwood. 

Essex Police said: "We have arrested a woman attempting to climb a gantry approximately 1.5 miles before J28 on the M25 clockwise track. One lane was closed for a short time as officers responded to the situation. All lanes between junctions 28 and 29 are now open."
