Live updates as M56 blocked by overturned horsebox
All traffic has been stopped on a stretch of the M56 this afternoon after a horsebox overturned in a crash. The motorway is blocked in both directions causing long delays due to the crash between J9 M6 J20 (Lymm Interchange) and J7 A556 Chester Road (Bowdon). Pictures from the scene show a horsebox overturned in the carriageway.
The horse appears to be walking and unhurt. For the latest news and breaking news visit liverpoolecho.co.uk/news[2] Get all the big headlines, pictures, analysis, opinion and video on the stories that matter to you by signing up to our daily and breaking newsletter[3].
