Morning Crashes Cause Heavy Delays on M60, M62 and M5

Emergency crews are attending separate crashes at Denton Island, Huddersfield, the Almondsbury Interchange.

Overview

  • The M60 clockwise is partially blocked between J24 (Denton Island) and J25 (Brinnington), with queues stretching past J23 and traffic also building on the M67 westbound.
  • Diversion routes are heavily congested on the A6017 Denton Road and Ashton Road between Audenshaw and Bredbury as drivers avoid the M60.
  • On the M62 westbound, one lane is closed with slow traffic between J23 (Huddersfield) and J22 (Rishworth Moor) after a 7am collision.
  • The M5 northbound has one lane closed between J15 (M4 Almondsbury Interchange) and J14 (Thornbury), with emergency services on scene and an expected clear time between 08:30 and 08:45, according to National Highways.
  • Wednesday’s earlier multi-vehicle crash on the M62 between J22 and J23 was cleared to the hard shoulder with all lanes reopened, though residual delays were reported into Thursday as new incidents developed.
