Cameras mounted on vehicles will beam images from crash scenes to motorway control rooms under a new scheme.
The 16 mobile CCTV cameras on pneumatic masts will be called to all types of incidents on the M25.
And once at the scene, staff inside the special vehicles will be able to provide staff at a central CCTV control room with a 360 degree view.
Spokesman for the Highways Agency Ian Clabon said: "The Highways Agency is committed to ensuring that when incidents do occur on our network they are cleared as quickly and safely as possible.
"Through the use of this technology we hope to ensure the right resources are dispatched to the scene of an incident at the right time to enable the Highways Agency to keep traffic moving on the M25."
The M25 CCTV control room is based at South Mimms off Junction 23 of the M25.
