Multi-vehicle pile up closes A13 in south Essex with severe delays building
A MULTI-VEHICLE crash has closed the A13 eastbound between Orsett and Stanford-le-Hope causing severe delays in south Essex this afternoon.
The pile up was first reported around 2pm this afternoon and has seen emergency services completely close the major road Basildon-bound, with queuing traffic backing up to Grays.
Traffic is reported to be moving extremely slowly following the crash, with an unknown number of vehicles involved in the collision and AA traffic news reporting increasing delays while emergency services work to clear the debris.

Delays expected due to double lane closure on bridge
Rush hour drivers were expected to feel the brunt of worsened traffic on the Orwell Bridge near Ipswich after two lanes were shut at the same time. They were closed on the major route through Suffolk to allow for £6m repair works to continue on Monday. Widespread delays previously broke out when an eastbound carriageway was closed on Monday, 23 June, which was followed by a westbound lane on Saturday. Martin Fellows, from National Highways, warned motorists using the A14 to "allow extra time" for their journeys. While the lanes were shut, traffic was limited to 60mph on the eastbound side and 40mph for those travelling west while the contraflow system was in place. Work to replace 37-year-old joints on the bridge was expected to be completed by late August. It has been a point of concern for Dan Trent, owner of Dan's Coach Travel in Stowmarket. "It's causing delays to our customers, passengers, drivers - it's causing them stress that they don't need," he said. Mike Barrett, who runs a food charity in Ipswich, added the traffic was already increasing "mileage, delivery times, fuel costs" prior to the westbound closure. Queues had previously gone back as far as Sproughton and caused delays on the A12 at the Copdock Interchange. National Highways acknowledged the traffic issues but said the structural project was essential. Mr Fellows thanked drivers for their patience in the interim. "We remain confident that all works will be completed by mid to late August, as originally planned," he added. "The A14 will still be your best route whilst we are doing this work, so please stay on the A14, but allow extra time for your journey." Follow Suffolk news on BBC Sounds, Facebook, Instagram and X.

Smart Traffic Management to Save 900m Tons of Emissions Globally by 2030, But Security Must Scale with Adoption
BASINGSTOKE, United Kingdom, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A new study from Juniper Research, the foremost experts in IoT markets, has found the adoption of smart traffic management solutions will save up to 923 million metric tons (MMT) of CO2 by 2030. This is an increase of 151% on the 368 MMT CO2 savings forecast for this year. This substantial increase in CO2 saving represents 1.5% of 2030 global carbon emissions. Find out more: Smart Traffic Management Market 2025-2030, or download a free sample. Cybersecurity Remains a Key Concern To achieve these CO2 savings, Juniper Research believes it is essential security measures can scale alongside the growing number of sensors in smart traffic management solutions and the increasing volume of data generated. We have identified technologies specifically designed for high-end security in data-intensive and automated environments, such as data minimisation solutions and federated learning, as ideal for processing real-time information from smart traffic management solutions. Juniper Research finds the technologies that provide data anonymisation, particularly in the face of real-time decision making, will position smart traffic management vendors best to capitalise in a market expected to grow from $14.8 billion globally in 2025, to $32.7 billion in 2030. Integrating these technologies will enable vendors to analyse traffic data without compromising any personal data collected; enhancing public trust and reducing the risk of data breaches. Research author, Michelle Joynson, stated, 'As smart traffic management solutions continue to collect valuable personal data to optimise traffic flows, the threat of cyber-attacks is increasing. Smart traffic vendors must deploy robust security measures to ensure system reliability, continually enabling optimised traffic flows; leading to significant emission reductions and cost savings.' About the Research The research suite offers a comprehensive assessment of the smart traffic management market, including insightful market analysis and in-depth forecasts for 60+ countries. The dataset contains over 37,000 market statistics within a five-year period. It includes a 'Competitor Leaderboard' to examine the current and future market opportunities.
