The M6 in Cumbria has been closed after a serious collision and a lorry fire - and is likely to remain so for hours, highways bosses have revealed.

National Highways has issued an emergency alert to warn motorists heading towards the Lake District and Scotland. The northbound carriageway is likely to remain closed 'beyond this evening's peak travel period', they said in a statement.

The collision - and subsequent lorry fire - was reported just before noon. The northbound carriageway is currently closed from junction 39 at Shap to junction 40 at Penrith.
