Three taken to hospital after M5 crash where lorry driver formed barricade

South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust has confirmed three people were taken to hospital following a crash on the M5 motorway last night (March 24) near Weston-super-Mare.

The multi-vehicle collision closed two lanes and caused a queue of traffic which stretched back for more than five miles.

Avon Fire and Rescue Service last night confirmed that three vehicles had been involved in the crash and, at around 6:30pm, emergency services had been in the process of "making vehicles safe", before lanes reopened fully at around 8:15pm, according to National Highways South West.
