A major highway is at a standstill, with queues growing by the minute, all because of a crash in Stockport. But this isn't just any traffic jam...
The M60, a vital artery for commuters, is experiencing significant delays, especially on the clockwise carriageway near junction two. The Inrix traffic service reports a collision, causing a partial blockage of the road.
And here's where it gets frustrating: the delays are not just at the crash site. Google traffic data reveals that the congestion starts all the way back at junction 26 in Bredbury, with queues also forming between junction two and the M56.
As if that wasn't enough, traffic is also building up between junctions 23 and 25, near Ashton and Brinnington, respectively. This means that drivers are facing slow-moving traffic in multiple locations, with the situation expected to worsen during the morning rush hour.
But what caused this chaos? The nature of the collision remains a mystery, with no official details released yet. Inrix's update simply states that the accident has partially blocked the M60 clockwise, causing slow traffic at J2.
Stay tuned for the latest updates on this developing situation. We'll keep you informed as more information becomes available, including any potential impact on your commute.
