The trailer, which was transporting another car, has blocked lanes three and four of the M27 westbound between Junction Four for the M3 and Junction Three for the M271 – just before Rownhams Services.

Traffic was backing up past Junction Four, with delays of more than 15 minutes.

Traffic information service ROMANSE has said the vehicles have been cleared from the road, but delays are still expected while traffic returns to normal.
