Dog on M60 Causes Major Backups, Snarling Rush Hour

0:00On March 19th, drivers on the M60 faced major headaches tonight on March 19th, with two separate incidents causing miles of backups. One key issue shut down the carriageway in both directions between junctions, 23 and 22, near Ashton underlying and fails worth. National Highways reported three miles of congestion, going anti-clockwise and two miles clockwise, leading to 30-minute delays, one way and 20 minutes the other. The blockage from a dog on the road cleared up just after 8.30 pm. With traffic now flowing again, these quick clearing events remind us how unexpected stops can snarl rush-hour commutes.
