M60 Live Serious Incidents Now: None We Are Aware Of

There are no serious incidents on the M60 that we are aware of right now, as at 02:07 (2:07am).

This page features the incidents on the M60 that have a bigger effect than an ordinary delay: a sudden closure, a serious collision, a vehicle fire, or traffic that has come to a stop. For every report, including smaller ones and planned roadworks, see the latest M60 traffic news, and for accidents and breakdowns see M60 accidents.

Each item is our own conclusion. We can’t be at every junction, so we put together the reports and readings we receive, from National Highways’ incident reports, overhead signs and live speeds to reports from drivers, and say what they suggest is happening and when it started. Further down are the serious incidents we recorded earlier today, yesterday and over the last month.
