Drivers in Glasgow are facing lengthy delays on the M8 after it was closed due to an ongoing "incident."
All motorway traffic is being held westbound after junction 22 (Plantation) due to the collision, which happened between junction 23 (Dumbreck) and junction 24 (Helen Street).
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Emergency services are currently in attendance at an incident on the M8 near to Junction 23 westbound, Govan, Glasgow, to which police were called around 2.05pm today, Sunday, 9 January, 2022. No further details at this time.
"The M8 westbound is closed prior to Junction 23 and traffic is being diverted via at the M8/M77 junction. Local diversions are in place."
Traffic Scotland initially tweeted an alert around 2.20pm on Sunday to say the section of road had been closed due to a road traffic collision.
In a further tweet just before 4pm it said the road remained closed due to an ongoing incident, with delays of about 45 minutes from the M74 junction 1A to M77 junction 1 and 25 minute delays between M8 junction 20 and the M77 junction 1.
