Motorists are facing long delays on the M5 this evening (Sunday) after a crash involving several vehicles.
Highways England says a ‘multi-vehicle’ accident has occurred near Weston-super-Mare, meaning the motorway is partially closed.
One lane is shut between junctions 22 (Burnham-on-Sea) and 21 on the northbound side.
Delays of about 15-20 minutes are reported by Highways England.
