The M62 near Leeds will be closed all night after a diesel spillage that has left drivers queuing for hours and means the entire road will need to be resurfaced.
National Highways Yorkshire first announced the westbound M62 carriageway had closed between Junction 28 and Junction 27 around 5pm. At 9pm, it was announced that all four lanes of the carriageway would have to be fully resurfaced due to the 'significant damage'.
For some drivers, the spillage has meant they've been stuck queuing for hours as many faced long delays. One woman tweeted asking how people were meant to get home if the road was closed all night, saying her partner had been queuing for three hours already.
