Traffic chaos on M62 after diesel spill causes 15 miles of delays

Motorists are facing 15 miles of queues on the M62 after a diesel spill on the westbound carriageway.

The spill has closed one lane on the M62 between J22 A672 (Rishworth Moor) to J21 A6193 Sir Isaac Newton Way (Milnrow).

Queues are stretching back to junction 25 at Brighouse.

According to our traffic partners Inrix, travel time is currently 1 hour and 15 minutes.

On their Twitter page, Highways England have said: "If travelling in #GreaterManchester #WestYorkshire pls be aware there are LONG DELAYS #M62 westbound #Denshaw #Rishworth #Huddersfield due to this incident.

"There are over 10 miles of congestion back to J25 #Brighouse , which is likely to add 1 hour to normal journey times."
