The M62 is experiencing major traffic disruption after the motorway is shut due to sheep on the carriageway. Drivers face long queues on both sides of the route as the incident is handled, with delays reported by motorists in the morning.
Local reporting indicates police respond to the scene to support operations and manage the situation on the highway. One outlet describes the disruption as lasting around 45 minutes, while another focuses on the presence of queues in both directions as the closure affects traffic flow.
The outlets broadly agree on the cause—sheep on the M62—and the resulting impact—queues and significant delays—though they differ in how long they emphasize the disruption and the specific details they report about police involvement.
