The Dartford Crossing bridge has been closed since about 11am after a poor disturbed individual pulled up at the highest point and climbed over the safety barriers. After four hours with Police negotiators they actually jumped, and were taken to hospital after being rescued by waiting lifeboats.
I have the deepest sympathy for those involved, but why is one of the busiest traffic bottlenecks in the country still closed and will remain so for many hours for ' an investigation' . The incident is now over, and I would have thought the priority would be to get the traffic moving? Does anyone here understand why hours of road closure are necessary?
