National Highways has partially reopened a section of the northbound A3 following a serious collision.

The motorway had been closed from the A247 and the B2039 from around 14:50 BST, while emergency services and Surrey Police attended the scene.

One lane was reopened just before 17:00 BST.

Drivers were advised to leave the A3 at the Burntcommon interchange and follow the B2215 for two miles, before rejoining at the Ockham interchange.

Surrey Police and the South East Coast Ambulance Service have been contacted for comment.
