The Avenue in West Wickham is partly blocked in both directions as emergency services deal with an incident.
The road is partially blocked at Pickhurst Lane and Mead Way, with drivers facing delays in the area. Traffic is slow through West Wickham.
The nature of the incident has not been confirmed, and no details about any vehicles involved or any injuries have been released.
The Avenue has now reopened following the earlier emergency services incident. This live blog is now closed.
Drivers travelling through the area should check their journeys before setting off and allow extra time.
It is the latest road disruption in the borough, after a lorry hitting a railway bridge in Beckenham blocked trains on Sunday, with lines reopening at 12.40pm.
It also follows a morning of disruption on London’s roads, with a van crash on the M25 clockwise between junctions 7 and 8 closing all lanes for a time and queues stretching back to junction 6 at Godstone.
Meanwhile, the Northern line was partly suspended on Tuesday after a casualty on the tracks at East Finchley, with no service between Camden Town and High Barnet. British Transport Police has confirmed the person’s injuries are not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing.
