Footage shows the aftermath of a crash on the M6 in which a lorry smashed through the central reservation near Preston on November 6.

The collision occurred between junctions 32 (Broughton) and 33 (Hampson Green) at around 11.30am on Wednesday.

The motorway was subsequently closed in both directions while emergency services worked at the scene.

Lancashire Police said the closure was likely to be in place for a number of hours.

The crash came as thousands of football fans from Sunderland travelled along the M6 to reach Preston, where the two teams were due to kick off at 8pm.
