Queues started building between junctions 23 at Outlane and 22 at Rishworth Moor this morning after a truck caught fire on the westbound carriageway.

Queues are now backed up to Hartshead Moor services with delays of just under two hours expected.

Lane one is still closed and it is thought it will remain closed for the rest of the afternoon. Video by Lisa Hirst
