Lorry Crashes Cause Major Delays on M54, A14, M8, A27 Across England, Scotland

Several major roads in the UK experienced significant delays due to various traffic incidents. The M8 eastbound near Harthill was reopened after an earlier accident, though delays persist for drivers. On the A27 at Sompting, a pick-up truck hit the central reservation, causing lane closures but no injuries. The M54 in Staffordshire saw long delays following a crash involving two lorries, one of which overturned and struck the central reservation, leading to lane closures and up to two hours of congestion. Additionally, the A14 in Cambridgeshire faced delays after a rubbish truck tipped over, with recovery efforts expected to continue until mid-afternoon. Authorities have advised motorists to allow extra travel time across these affected routes.
