Traffic Delays Caused by Multiple Road Incidents

Drivers are facing significant delays across multiple routes in the UK due to various incidents. The M5 in Devon is experiencing hour-long delays after a lorry fire, with three lanes closed and emergency services still on site. Meanwhile, the A5 in Shrewsbury is blocked following a crash near Dobbies Garden Centre, though no injuries have been reported. Additionally, the A494 is closed eastbound due to a police incident, causing further congestion. On the M4, severe delays are reported due to the closure of the M48 Severn Bridge amid strong winds, leading to backups on the Prince of Wales Bridge. Authorities are advising drivers to seek alternative routes and allow extra travel time.
