PLUMES of smoke can be seen from Heathrow Airport after a fire erupted a Heathrow warehouse.

The Fire Brigade are currently attending the scene at 2pm today (Friday).

The Servisair warehouse is in Stansted Road, inside the airport perimeter, but traffic is expected to be affected around the area. The Southern Perimeter Road around the airport has also been closed.

Twenty fire engines are on the scene, tackling the fire at the Servisair warehouse. It has been speculated the fire started when a fork lift truck caught ablaze.

Heathrow Airport confirmed they are open as normal, and flights are continuing to operate without disruption.

Smoke billowing into the sky from the fire can be seen from the motorway, and as far as Ealing and Hammersmith. Explosions were heard, but no casualties have so far been reported.

However, The London Ambulance Service is on standby, while passengers attempting to get to Terminal 4 have reported massive delayes.
