Two lanes have now re-opened, although some delays are still expected.

A spokesman for Highways England said: "We were alerted to a problem with the carriageway at around 8.30am this morning.

"At the moment we still have one lane closed. Our contractors are at the scene.

"We would advise drivers using this part of the motorway to allow extra time for their journey."
