Traffic information site Inrix reports long delays in the area, and previously said the road was blocked in both directions. The accident has worsened queues already on the route due to roadworks.

A police spokeswoman said: "Kent Police was called to a report of a collision involving a car and a lorry at 12.38pm today. "Officers are attending the scene on the coastbound carriageway of the A2 towards Whitfield roundabout near Dover. "No injuries have been reported.

Work is ongoing to clear the roadway."
