A spokesman for Lancashire Police said: “In the meantime, we’d recommend looking for an alternative route and driving carefully, leaving plenty of extra time to get to your destination.

“As always, thank you for your patience and stay safe if you’re out and about today.”

Heavy traffic was building in the area following the closure, with bus services 11 and 11a also diverted away from the scene.
