TRAVEL ALERT – Delays on M5 between Droitwich and Bromsgrove after lorry fire

DRIVERS travelling on the M5 between Droitwich and Bromsgrove are facing delays after a lorry fire

Two of the four lanes on the northbound carriageway between Junction 5 (Droitwich) and 4A (Bromsgrove and the M42) are shut.

The fire took place in the early hours of the morning but the recovery of the HGV and clear up are taking longer than expected.

Congestion is stretching back with more than a mile of tailbacks.
