Too much long distance traffic has clearly stayed on the M6 beyond Junction 36; drivers must be encouraged to leave the M6 either at Junction 40 (Penrith A66) or at Junction 36 (Kirkby Lonsdale A65), both on the National Highways website and on VMS from the M74 southwards.
@bbcnorthwest there are hundreds and hundreds of cars with no water or medication stuck on the M6 south and no one is helping
The highway agency just doesn’t care
My poor great grandparents have been stuck on the M6 southbound since 11am with no water and are still no closer to the junction. What the hell is going on? So many families with kids etc must be suffering. Planned works with no notice? Seriously? #m6 #southbound #vulnerable
@HighwaysNWEST absolutely criminal closing #m6 at Lancaster with severe lack of planning. Minimum 7 hours stuck and so much longer to go. No crash just badly planned roadworks. Emergency actions need to be taken @LancsRoadPolice
@HighwaysNWEST was this level of delay anticipated? This is madness - the wrong decision to close the M6.
Hang in there everyone on the #m6 so far it’s taken me a whopping 9 hours to travel between junction 34 and 33. Mental. Ran out of water & food a long time ago, & I was probably more prepared than most for a long journey. Feel for those who really shouldn’t be stuck.
Hi there, my mother on her birthday has been stuck for 8 hrs 15mins so far traveling Milnthope m6 southbound. I am very concerned for her wellbeing. Can you provide further information as the information you are providing contradict what is actually happening in her case.
@HighwaysNWEST probably the biggest own goal ever to close such a large section of M6 South (j33-34) for a weekend. Absolute carnage
I have travelled about 2 miles in 4 hours and I’m still a long way from J33. This level of delay and disruption is unacceptable- surely this can’t be allowed to happen for the next three weekends as well? Night closures only, please, or keep at least one lane open.
Can’t make decisions to close the M6 affect thousands of travellers and suffer No consequences. Who made the decision?
Absolute disgrace on #m6… currently 6hours at a basic standstill. @MC_HighwaysEng @Traffic_M6
#M6 Southbound. Joined Q to diversion with 5 miles to go, 60-90 min delay. Not great but expected. In 7 hours I've moved 3 miles. #Notcool.
@BBCNews reporting the #M6 as “busy” actually folk stuck in vehicles for 5 plus hours and the traffic isn’t moving. No updates from @HighwaysNWEST
#bbcnews @BBCNews @HighwaysNWEST allowing people onto #M6 at j34 only for it to be closed at j33. 6-7 hours to travel 5 miles. No warnings on matrix signs beforehand. People with kids with no water or food. Traffic then diverted onto A6 where there’s more roadworks…
Does anyone stuck in the M6 traffic want to bring me any snacks?? I’ve got nothing to trade tho. I’m in one of the many black golfs. Thanks in advance! #m6 #m6chaos #m6traffic
