‘The second lane of the road was blocked for some time too, but reopened again at 5.20pm.

‘Now, police are at the scene and recovery of the vehicle is taking place, and just one lane of the motorway is blocked.

‘Unfortunately there are delays for drivers, with tailbacks leading into Portsmouth, but traffic should be able to move freely soon.’

Firefighters and paramedics also attended the scene.
