MOTORISTS are reporting huge delays on the M6 this afternoon.

The tailbacks are due to a crash which happened between junctions 31a at Longridge and 31 for Preston and Clitheroe.

Witnesses said a green army-style buggy vehicle was flipped onto its roof in the second lane.

The Highways Agency is currently at the scene. Lane one is shut but traffic can still leave at the junction 31 exit.
