A lane has been closed on entry slip road at junction 11 for Preston Brook, following a collision between a jack-knifed lorry and a car shortly after 7am.

A police spokeswoman said one man has been taken to Warrington Hospital with what are believed to be minor injuries.

Traffic is slow heading in that direction.
