Drivers are facing delays during the evening rush hour following an incident this morning which involved a van and two lorries, one of which was carrying 7,000 litres of vegetable oil. The carriageway had been reduced to one lane but lane two has just been reopened.

Highways England contractors are currently on-site and are working to clear the oil from the carriageway as quickly as possible.
