Queuing traffic is causing disruption on the M1 after a broken down vehicle blocked lanes.
According to the traffic management system, Inrix, queues are causing disruption on the M1 northbound this morning. This is from junction 40 at the A638 Wakefield Road to junction 41 at the
A650 Carrgate. Lanes have been reopened following an earlier closure, but disruption continues.
Inrix said: "Queueing traffic due to earlier broken down vehicle on M1 Northbound from J40 A638 Wakefield Road (Ossett / Wakefield) to J41 A650 (Carrgate). All lanes have been re-opened."
It is unclear at this time how long this disruption will take place for this morning.
