Crash involving six vehicles causes long queues on M62

A six-vehicle pile-up has caused traffic chaos on the M62 this afternoon.

Police were called to reports of a crash on the westbound carriageway at junction 25, near Brighouse, at about 2.15pm.

A West Yorkshire Police spokesman said three people were left with minor injuries but no one needed hospital treatment.

Two of three lanes were closed while the vehicles were recovered, causing tailbacks and delays of more than two hours as far back as junction 29 at Rothwell.

All three lanes have now reopened and traffic is starting to return to normal, said police.
