FIREFIGHTERS were called to a caravan blaze on the hard shoulder of the M56 this afternoon.
The westbound motorway was closed between junction 11 at Preston Brook and 12 at Runcorn while emergency services dealt with the fire shortly after 1pm today, Friday.
It has been reported that traffic is stationary in the area due to a rolling road block.
More to follow.
