DELAYS: A broken down horsebox is causing delays today
A BROKEN down horsebox is causing delays on the M5 in Somerset this afternoon.
One lane has been closed as a result of the incident on the northbound carriageway between junction 22, for Burnham-On-Sea and junction 21, for Weston-Super-Mare.
Thanks for your patience, all lanes open #M5 northbound between J17 (@BristolAirport) and J16. Please allow time for the delays to ease.

There is also ‘very slow’ traffic on the M5 northbound at junction 16 for Aztec West due to a lorry which broke down earlier this afternoon.
