A CRASH between two cars and a van has blocked a lane at Chain Bar on the M606 this morning.

Queuing traffic has been caused by the incident with the M62 Westbound lane blocked on the exit slip road up to the roundabout.

Traffic England says the incident is expected to clear between 08:45 and 9am.

As of 9.15am, the incident was cleared and the lane re-opened on the exit slip road.

Traffic is now said to be easing.

The T&A has approached police for a comment.
