Emergency crews rushed to the scene after a major HGV spill forced a carriageway shutdown. The lorry has been recovered and diesel cleared, but the road faces an overnight resurfacing job. Expect closures as work kicks off tonight.
Diversions in Place
Traffic is now being diverted via the feeder road from junction 6 to junction 5. Look out for signs marked with a hollow square symbol to guide you through.
Delays Expected
Motorists should brace for delays approaching the closure and on the diversion routes. Extra journey time is almost certain.
