A crash involving three vehicles has closed a lane of the M62.

The pile-up, involving a lorry, car and another vehicle, happened on the eastbound stretch between junctions 27 (Gildersome) and 28 (Tingley). Traffic is queuing back to junction 26 (Chain Bar).

Lanes two and three were closed after the smash, although lane two re-opened at 3.15pm. Lane three remains shut and delays of 45 minutes are expected.
