Drivers face huge delays with northbound M6 shut after 'at least 300 litres' of diesel spill

A major section of the M6 is shut after a huge diesel spill forced the closure of all lanes.

The northbound M6 was closed by traffic officers from National Highways at 6.38pm on Monday after an incident involving a heavy goods vehicle which saw at least 300 litres of diesel spill onto the carriageway between Junction 5 at Castle Bromwich and Junction 6 for Spaghetti Junction.
