There is very slow traffic due to earlier accident on the M6 northbound between J41 B5305 (Catterlen) and J42 A6 / B6263 (Carlisle South).

All lanes have now been re-opened.

A lorry had collided with the central reservation barrier and shed its load.

There will be a lane three closure later this evening for barrier repairs.
