A broken down motorbike in the Blackwall Tunnel is adding to traffic chaos already caused by an earlier breakdown this morning.

Transport for London saidthe motorbike in the northbound bore briefly closed the tunnel, before it was pushed out again.

Earlier, a van briefly shut a lane of the tunnel before it was recovered at around 7.30am.

There are now delays reported on the northbound approach, with congestion snaking back to Shooters Hill Road and on the A2 to the Danson Interchange.
