CLEARED: All lanes reopened on M1 after overturned lorry is recovered
The accident on Friday, between junctions 28 and 29 at Tibshelf, initially resulted in a full closure of the northbound carriageway.
Highways officials managed to re-open the carriageway, but on Friday evening two lanes were closed again for a number of hours while the lorry was recovered. The operation continued until just after midnight.
Highways England tweeted: “Thanks to recovery operator for their hard work this evening with lift and recovery of HGV. #M1 J28 – J29 (N) now fully re-opened. #Tibshelf”
