Essex Police have closed the Sealife Adventure car park as they work to safely disperse a large crowd gathering on Southend seafront. The decision to shut the car park was made amid growing concerns about public safety and order due to the swelling number of people in the area.

Officers have issued dispersal orders across most of the seafront to address the situation and prevent further crowding. The move follows reports of big groups flocking to Southend seafront, prompting authorities to take action to maintain control.

Essex Police have been contacted for comment but have not yet released a detailed statement. Updates will be provided as officers continue their efforts to calm the scene and ensure public safety.
