The spokeswoman said that the camper van was “well alight” when firefighters arrived and that a number of butane gas cylinders exploded inside the vehicle due to the fire.
She confirmed that no one was hurt as a result of the vehicle fire.
One motorists caught up in the this morning’s queues said there was a delay of about 15 minutes due to the smoke covering the road.
