Long delays on M6 and M56 in Warrington due to closed lanes

This is due to lane closures on the M6. One lane is closed and there are long delays northbound between junction 19 at Knutsford and 20 at Lymm. There are also knock on delays on the M56 back to Stretton with traffic joining the M6.

Meanwhile southbound all lanes were closed due to an accident on the Thelwall Viaduct.

Delays remain although the road has reopened.

Drivers are reporting long delays across Warrington town centre on the commute home as a result.
