A section of the M5 is shut this morning after a huge crash, with six miles of traffic and hour-long delays during the morning rush hour. The closure is impacting the southbound stretch of the motorway between Junction 16 and Junction 17.
National Highways said in a statement on X: "All lanes have now re-opened on the #M5 southbound between J16 and J17 near #Almondsbury #Bristol. A 52 minute delay and 6 miles of congestion remains in the area but should now start to ease. Thanks for your patience this morning."
