I normally travel Caversham to Farnborough, but am working in Northampton today, so going the other way.
Radio Berks was quoting a broken down van and a tree down in the Heckfield area, both causing havoc on all routes running up to the A33/M4 J11. Likely to be that?
Heckfield was a problem, so I am guessing that could have been it. Cheers. It's so frustrating never finding out why!Radio Berks was quoting a broken down van and a tree down in the Heckfield area, both causing havoc on all routes running up to the A33/M4 J11. Likely to be that?

BBC news reported earlier that it happened at 04:50 so ~15 mins before you passed.
I wasn't aware of it when I left today London bound from M4J10 but given the torrential downpour, I did think it was unusually light so figured something serious must have occurred further back. Terrible news on the driver

I drove past heading westwards at 5.08 this morning.. fire engines were there, and they were working to shut the lanes down.
Can't have happened much before I went past.
Looked bad. Can believe he didn't make it :-(
Always a sobering reminder of mortality.
It is indeed. Sad news.Can't have happened much before I went past.

When you see the size of a modern day tractor unit and with todays safety standards i'm surprised the cabs don't stand up better to a big impact. Sometimes i don't miss it.
