ALL lanes have now been re-opened on the M5 northbound following a crash.

The motorway was closed between junctions 5 and 4A earlier this evening after a car and lorry crashed.

Highways England tweeted just before 6.30pm to say all lanes were completely blocked, but then minutes later said they were back open.

Police and traffic officers were at the scene, but with the recovery now completeĀ motorists are being warned of 15-minute delays.
