Commuters in Cannock faced significant delays this afternoon following a multi-vehicle collision on the M6 Northbound between Junction 11 (Cannock) and Junction 12 (Gailey). National Highways confirmed that two lanes were closed for several hours to allow for debris clearance and barrier repairs. The incident caused tailbacks stretching toward the M6 Toll merge, with local routes through Bridgtown and Cheslyn Hay becoming heavily congested as drivers attempted to avoid the motorway. Recovery teams have now cleared the vehicles, but slow-moving traffic is expected to remain until late evening. No serious injuries have been reported, but authorities are urging caution due to damp road conditions across the Chase.
