Overview
- Overnight downpours left the M62 westbound partially blocked between J23 (Huddersfield) and J22 (Rishworth Moor) due to flooding.
- All traffic on the M1 northbound was held at J31 for Sheffield/Worksop late morning because of flooding, causing long delays.
- An afternoon crash on the M62 eastbound between J26 (Chain Bar) and J27 (Gildersome) closed two of four lanes and created severe queues.
- All lanes later reopened on the M62 eastbound between J26 and J27 and traffic returned to normal, according to Inrix.
- Live updates cited data from traffic monitor Inrix and motorway camera feeds tracking closures, congestion and clearances.
