M8 traffic further disrupted as multiple crashes cause chaos in both directions

A four-car crash has added to the woes for drivers on the M8 this afternoon.

As reported by Glasgow Live, two separate incidents on both sides of the motorway have been causing chaos for the past hour.
 

And in the past ten minutes, Traffic Scotland has reported another accident in the city centre, at the Charing Cross tunnel, where one lane is blocked on the eastbound side.

Motorists are being urged to find an alternative route.

The condition of anyone involved in any of the incidents is unknown at this time.

Traffic Scotland say: " This will add to further delays this afternoon with congestion already from the RTC at J16 Cowcaddens, best to avoid if you can! "

The three-car crash at Junction 16 Dobbie's Loan, between Cowcaddens and Charing Cross, happened just before 3pm.

Traffic is backed up to Junction 12 Riddrie.
