All three lanes have reopened on the M40 southbound following a "serious" crash this morning.

Major delays have been reported around the motorway throughout the day following the incident between junctions 16 (Hockley Heath) and 15 (Warwick).

The crash involved two lorries and a car and happened at 7.26am this morning (November 3).

National Highways said: "This incident is now clear, and all lanes have re-opened on the M40 southbound between J16 (Hockley Heath) and J15 (Warwick).

"An 80 minute delay and seven miles of congestion remains in the area but should now start to ease.

"Thanks for your patience this morning/afternoon."
