Broken down vehicles today caused long delays on the M40 in north Oxfordshire.

Two lanes were blocked on the southbound carriageway by a broken down tanker between junction ten at the Cherwell Valley Services and junction nine at Wendlebury.

Travel time between the junction was reported as 45 minutes.

An earlier broken down vehicle before junction ten was quickly moved to the side of the road.

Traffic is already slow going through the area following an accident earlier. The Highways Agency are on the scene.

Barrier repairs are going on in the same area following an unrelated accident earlier.
