Section of West Lothian M8 reopens after police 'incident' sparked two-hour closure

A section of the busy West Lothian M8 has now reopened after a two-hour closure due to a police 'incident'.

Traffic Scotland and West Lothian Police informed motorists of the closure between Junction 3A and 4 near Whitburn around 11am on Saturday, with the road being closed in both directions and traffic reportedly at a standstill.

Pictures on social media have shown motorists out of their cars and looking down the road as traffic ground to a halt.
