Traffic congestion has significantly increased on the M6 northbound, specifically between junctions 14 and 15, following an incident where a lorry shed its load of offal. The event occurred on Wednesday morning, March 4, leading to lane closures as immediate response measures were implemented by National Highways. A spokesperson confirmed that lanes 1, 2, and 3 have been closed to manage the situation and clear the roadway.

The National Highways team is actively addressing the situation with traffic officers present at the scene, while specialist contractors are on their way to assist in the cleanup and ensure the road is safe for travel. Drivers have been advised to expect considerable delays and to allow extra time for their journeys, as substantial traffic queues have formed as a result of the closure.

This incident highlights the ongoing challenges on major UK motorways, where vehicle breakdowns or accidents can lead to severe disruptions. Authorities continue to monitor the situation and provide live updates to keep the public informed about the status of the roads and any necessary detour measures.
