Workers who were held up in getting to their jobs on time have spoken of the 'shocking' traffic the M1 closure has caused, but residents living in the same area have not noticed any build up of motorists.
Nottinghamshire Police are investigating a crash involving two vans and a lorry that happened on the southbound carriageway of the M1 between junctions 25 and 26 at 2.45am this morning (Thursday, January 20).
The motorway had been closed in both directions just after 3am, but the northbound carriageway was reopened before rush hour this morning.
