THE M5 was closed between junction seven and six after a car and a caravan jackknifed in lane three.
Traffic was being diverted off the northbound junction seven slip road which is half a mile from the incident area in the roadworks.
The carriageway was reopened at about 6pm but there were traffic tailbacks.
There were no reported injuries.
