The M62 westbound carriageway has been closed between Leeds and Bradford following a huge diesel spillage across the road.

Miles of traffic is building up on the road and National Highways say that the clean up operation between junctions 28 and 27 for Leeds and Bradford respectively may last for much of the evening.

Diversion routes are in place but could add an extra 45 minutes on to journey times.

Crews from the fire service are assisting with the clear up.

Drivers are urged to allow for extra journey time this afternoon.
